Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray left frustrated after his side were held at Luton

Tony Mowbray says there was a sense of frustration amongst the Sunderland players after they had to settle for a point at Luton Town. The Black Cats fell behind in injury-time at the end of the first period when Carlton Morris put the hosts ahead at Kenilworth Road - a goal in which Sunderland defender Danny Batth felt he was fouled in the build-up - but Elliot Embleton came off the bench to level with a little over ten minutes remaining.

Sunderland brought on attacking player in the second half and had chances to win the match near the end, and the fact they could not find a second goal explains the disappointment in the dressing room. "We were frustrated in the dressing room that that didn't happen," said Mowbray.

"It was a fine balance today between having enough physicality on the pitch, but then as the game went on and we needed a goal, we had to put more footballers on the pitch. The only way to beat them, really, is to put your footballers on the pitch and keep the ball off them and move it through their lines.
