Loan Watch: Besic Shows Class In Derby Thriller
Everton loanee Muhamed Besic again impressed as Middlesbrough fought out a 3-3 Championship thriller with north-east rivals Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.
Besic’s sumptuous through ball set up Patrick Bamford to put Boro 3-2 ahead on 68 minutes. The goal looked set to be the winner for Tony Pulis’ men, only for Callum McManaman to equalise for the Black Cats in the sixth minute of added time. Tyias Browning was an unused substitute for Sunderland.
Joe Williams played 90 minutes as Barnsley won 2-0 at Birmingham City in a crucial Championship clash. The win lifts the Tykes out of the relegation places, while Birmingham fall into the drop zone.
