Tony Mowbray admits Sunderland's win against Millwall felt less comfortable than scoreline suggested

Tony Mowbray admits the 3-0 scoreline flattered Sunderland as they beat Millwall at the Stadium of Light to move to within a point of the Championship play-off places. Goals from Amad, Alex Pritchard, and Ellis Simms saw the Black Cats compete back-to-back wins which lifted them to tenth place and, given how tight things are in the table, that means they are just a single point behind sixth-placed QPR.

Mowbray was delighted with the result although he acknowledged that the game never felt as comfortable as the final scoreline suggested. "Ultimately, sitting here we're pleased with three points and a clean sheet, a 3-0 win at home," said Mowbray.

"It never felt that comfortable for most of the game. I wasn't too happy at half-time.
