Bettinelli fumble turns tie Sunderland’s way

Fulham 1 Sunderland 3

Little over a week after Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham and Southampton saw their hopes go up in smoke, Gus Poyet’s side looked like they would follow suit after Hugo Rodallega gave the Championship side a first-half lead.

However, an unfortunate own goal from the otherwise impressive Bettinelli was followed up by a fine strike from Ricardo Alvarez and Jordi Gomez’s penalty as Sunderland secured a 3-1 win at Craven Cottage.
