Sometimes the outcome of a game can hinge on a single big decision. Referee Scott Oldham's call - on the advice of his linesman - to award Sunderland a late penalty against play-off contenders Luton Town for what looked like the slightest tug on Amad's arm by defender Amari Bell certainly fits that narrative.
It allowed Amad to step up and convert from the spot five minutes from time to rescue a point at the Stadium of Light. But perhaps boiling it down to that one moment is too simplistic.
There was another decision, arguably just as important if not as obvious as the penalty call, taken ten minutes or so earlier that had changed the dynamics of the game. That was Tony Mowbray's bold decision with a little under 20 minutes remaining to make a quadruple substitution and change formation to 3-5-2 in an attempt to disrupt the pattern of a game that looked to be running away from Sunderland.
