Graeme Murty was pleased on the whole with his sides performance against Derby County despite conceding a late equaliser. The Sunderland U21s boss was able to give Isaac Lihadji his first minutes in a red and white shirt with the French youngster impressive against the Rams.
The Black Cats took the lead through Harry Gardiner, but Sonny Blu Lo-Everton equalised in the dying embers of the game. The Wearsiders had a number of good chances throughout the game to win it, but couldn't add to their tally with the rams picking up their first point of the season.
“There were some really good bits; some of our passages of play, some of the way we controlled the game and some of the way we beat their press were very good, but we lack consistency,” Murty told safc.com
