Play by play
Thank you for tuning into this minute-by-minute commentary. I've been James Dall. Cheerio.
Goodness me. Seriously, goodness me. No-one saw that coming. Sunderland were pegged back for almost the whole game, with City pressing hard for a late winner. Indeed, they hit the bar through Richards. But then an offside Ji struck at the death, the very death. Incredible stuff, really.

- 90'
But it was offside. Replays confirm it should have been ruled out for offside. Sunderland care not a jot.
- 90'
Sunderland found themselves on the break. Sessegnon threaded through to Ji, who stayed cool to round Hart and poke into an empty net. Crazy scenes.

Amazing!

One minute left.

Sunderland win a throw-in. Huge cheers.

Kompany lumps it forward but that type of ball is easy for Sunderland to deal with.

Three minutes of added time will be played.

Still the blue wave comes. Sunderland are feeling the heat.

WOODWORK! Wow: Silva hits one, and hits it well. Mignolet dives and parries but only to Richards, who heads the rebound. The keeper is down but the ball hits the crossbar and is swiftly hacked away by Sunderland.
- 87'
Sunderland have EVERYONE behind the ball.
- 86'
Cattermole receives some treatment after Kompany kicked the ball out. The midfielder is back trotting around now.
- 85'
Cattermole is down injured. He gets back to his feet, but is hobbling.
- 84'
City well in charge as they probe for an avenue. But Sunderland have everyone back.
- 83'
Silva dinks a cheeky ball over the top, but Kligallon hacks away.
- 82'
Ji receives the ball about 20 yards out but he seems to panic and ultimately falls over.

Argh. Dzeko wins another header, and this time it has power. However, the nod misses the top corner by a yard.
- 79'
Sunderland are doing well at holding City and winning the ball back. But they are losing possession far too cheaply, which is no surprise considering the lack of attacking support when they have it.
- 78'
Zabaleta floats in a cross, making it difficult for Dzeko to generate power on a header that bobbles off target.
