Sunderland survival hopes rise after win at Everton

Sunderland striker Danny Graham’s first goal for the club may have been a fluke but its significance could not be under-estimated as the Black Cats took another step towards Premier League survival.

Even the kindest critic would describe the 29-year-old’s career at the Stadium of Light as a flop, having spent spells on loan at Hull, Middlesbrough and Wolves since his £5million move from Swansea in January 2013.
