Crystal Palace's winless run extended to 10 games in all competitions after they were beaten 2-1 by Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Although Palace took the lead through Yeremy Pino's top-corner finish after half-an-hour, Enzo Le Fee quickly replied for the Black Cats. Pino curled a free-kick over the crossbar and Henderson dived to stop Hume's header as both sides enjoyed early opportunities in the second half. Brobbey almost turned provider after stabbing the ball into Hume, but the Northern Ireland international was denied by a stunning one-handed save from Henderson. Roefs punched away Pino's corner and Henderson made two excellent stops to deny Eliezer Mayenda and Ballard in quick succession in the 90th minute.
