Sunderland 0-1 Blackpool
Sunderlandâs frustrating run of form continued at the Stadium of Light when Blackpool, fellow contenders for a play-off place, left with three points.
The Black Cats, who sit five points above seventh-place with two matches remaining, now know it is mathematically impossible to finish in an automatic promotion place.
The focus is on ending a seven-match winless run to secure a place in the Sky Bet League One play-offs next month. A victory at Plymouth on Saturday would do that.
But this was a disappointing night. Sullay Kaikaiâs stunning volley in the 56th minute proved enough to separate the two teams on the night.
