We had time and space to win game - Le Bris

CATS BOSS SURPRISED AT ROOM ON THE BALL

- By THEO SQUIRES

REGIS Le Bris admitted Sunderland were surprised at how much time and space they were given on the ball by Liverpool as they claimed a 1-1 draw at Anfield but says once they found their belief they could have won the game.

The Black Cats came within a whisker of a huge upset at Anfield, having led through Chemsdine Talbi’s deflected opener on Wednesday night.

A late Nordi Mukiele own goal cancelled out that strike, while Wilson Isidor saw his late effort cleared off the line as Sunderland were the better side throughout the game.
