88'
Graham wins Sunderland a throw-in deep inside the Stoke half.
86'
Charlie Adam's been going for it all day and this time he very nearly finds a long-range winner, sending a swerving shot on target only for Pantillimon to paw it behind.

Can either side find a winner here?
83'
Coates makes an outstanding lunging block to clear Crouch's low volley away.

80'
Peter Odemwingie is on after a seven-month absence with injury, replacing Walters.
79'
Billy Jones is the latest player to be booked, holding back Arnautovic as he tried to get to the left-hand byline.
78'

Frantic stuff as Walters wriggles into space on the right-hand side of the Sunderland penalty area but overhits his cross for Peter Crouch - if you can believe it.
74'
Gomez is convinced he should have a freekick as Arnautovic bundles him over near the right corner flag. Nothing given but it definitely should have been.

71'
That is Diouf's last act, as he's replaced by Peter Crouch.
70'
Pantillimon with a brilliant block to deny Diouf. Adam with a wedged pass into the area which finds the Senegalese forward at the far post, he control on his chest before smashing it towards goal only for the Romanian stopper to somehow deflect it over.
