Sunderland earned a deserved point as they held runaway Championship leaders Burnley to a goalless draw at Turf Moor. The Black Cats could even have won it 20 minutes from time when substitute Amad hit the crossbar with a deflected shot.
Jack Clarke also had the ball in the net near the end but his effort was correctly disallowed for an offside against Abdoullah Ba, who was standing directly in front of the goalkeeper. Sunderland became only the third team this season to keep a clean sheet against Burnley in the league, and the first to do so at Turf Moor in almost a year - with Manchester City the last team to achieve that feat a year ago on Sunday.
Sunderland stay 11th in the table ahead of the rest of this weekend's Championship fixtures. Burnley extend their lead at the top to 14 points, and they are now 17 points clear of third-placed Middlesbrough.
