On-loan midfielder Sully Muntari earned Sunderland a stunning late victory at the Reebok Stadium against Premier Lerague high-fliers Bolton Wanderers. Although the Black Cats had gone ahead at the stoke of half time (probably against the run of play) thanks to Boudewijn Zenden converting a one on one against Jussi Jaaskelainen in a midfielder vs. goalkeeper battle that was worth at least 10,454 point in Scrabble, Ivan Klasnic managed to nick a goal back at the very end of the match when he headed in a cross.

However, Sunderland weren't quite done, with Stephane Sessegnon springing Muntari clear down the left. The former Portsmouth man looked to slide in a low cross to find a teammate, but instead succeeded in banking a pass off both Jaaskelainen and defender Zat Knight before rolling into the net. One imagines he'll take it. Bolton's European challenge has long since been over, so this result doesn't change much at that end of the table, but Sunderland are now mathematically guaranteed Premier League football next season. After the slew of injuries and terrible run of form his side's endured, that was about as much as Steve Bruce could possibly have asked this month.
