Sunderland 1-1 Norwich: Black Cats survival hopes hit by last-gasp Ivo Pinto equaliser at Stadium of Light

Sunderland's survival hopes were dashed by a late Ivo Pinto eqauliser as they drew with Norwich.

Aiden McGeady had missed a first-half penalty but it looked as though his blushes would be spared when George Honeyman tapped home.

However Pinto had other ideas, and scored in the 89th minute to push Sunderland further towards an impending relegation to League One.
