Leeds United 0 Sunderland 0: Sea gets rougher for Daniel Farke as Whites produce jaded display - and also have no luck after failure to award late penalty

Fast forward almost 51 years and the odds on another Wearsiders’ victory against an upwardly-mobile Leeds side in their latest meeting weren’t quite as long as on that famous afternoon at the home of football. But in the context of the Championship’s captivating automatic promotion story of 2023-24, a Sunderland win would certainly have constituted a seismic moment - at Leeds’ expense. In the event, it ended in a draw and that was a surprise enough. An unwelcome one.

Summerville got away from his main marker in Trai Hume just the once, cutting inside in that elegant way in which he can before firing wide. A rasper from Rutter flew just over, but in truth there was little else from those in white shirts, attacking the Kop in the first period - in a desperately disappointing offering. The one consolation is that they did not trail. Sunderland’s young guns grew in confidence as United’s gun players were subdued.
