Here's how Pool's players rated:
7. Matty Virtue - 7/10
Gave Pool the lead with a sublime curling strike. Got up and down the pitch well with some late attacking runs.
8. Liam Feeney - 6/10
Final ball was lacking. Kept at it to his credit but he didnt quite manage to hit his usually high standard.
9. Sullay Kaikai - 6/10
Had a quiet 45 minutes before being withdrawn at the interval complaining of a stomach complaint.
10. Nathan Delfouneso - 6/10
Battled well but didnt threaten as much in a more central position as opposed to playing out wide.
11. Armand Gnanduillet - 6/10
A quiet day for the striker. Denied by the keeper in the first half before blocking James Husbands shot on the goalline.
12. SUB: Sean Scannell - 5/10
For Kaikai, 46'
Proved fairly ineffective off the bench. Had chances to get the ball in the Sunderland box but final ball was lacking.
