Sunderland climbed into the play-off places with a resounding win at Wigan Athletic. The Black Cats won their final game of 2022 to move to fourth in the Championship, although that could change before the year-end as there are more games tomorrow.
Ellis Simms put them ahead inside the opening 20 minutes at the DW Stadium, only for Will Keane to level for the Latics just before half-time. But in the second half Sunderland took the game away from their hosts.
Sub Patrick Roberts won a penalty which was converted by fellow sub Ross Stewart to put them back in front. And then in the final five minutes, Roberts scored with a deflected effort and then provided the assist for Amad to score a spectacular fourth for the Wearsiders.
