Sunderland and Leeds United drew 0-0

Sunderland and Leeds United drew 0-0 at the Stadium of Light in the Premier League, with neither side able to find a way through in a drab matchday 8 game.

Leeds started strongly and controlled possession early on, despite poor conditions caused by Storm Boelo. That early pressure brought no goal, and the contest gradually lost its edge as the afternoon wore on.

Sunderland may have had the better of the chances in what GiveMeSport described as a drab game. Their goalkeeper also made a series of saves, which 101 Great Goals highlighted, to ensure the home side kept a clean sheet.

The result leaves Sunderland bottom of the Premier League and without a league win in six matches, although the point ends their run of four straight top-flight defeats. Leeds move up to seventh but are now without a win in four matches, three of them draws.
