No goals at Sunderland

31/12/2005 - 15:59:04

Sunderland striker Jon Stead passed up a golden opportunity to open his account for the club when he fired straight at Nigel Martyn after being put clean through on goal.

The former Blackburn man took advantage of a kind ricochet in midfield on the half-hour to break clear, but Martyn stood tall to save comfortably.

Liam Lawrence had earlier tested the keeper with a low drive, but Tony Hibbert had forced a good save from Kelvin Davis on 11 minutes and former Black Cat Kevin Kilbane had also chanced his arm from distance.
