SUNDERLAND, England - Norwich City lost goalkeeper Mark Bunn to a first-half red card but still emerged from their trip to Sunderland with a 1-1 draw in yesterday's English Premier League clash.
Bunn was sent off for handling the ball outside his penalty area moments after his side had taken the lead through Wes Hoolahan. Further Norwich generosity enabled Craig Gardner to equalise from the penalty spot in the 40th minute after a handball by Sebastien Bassong, but the visitors held firm in the second half.
Sunderland have now gone seven games without victory in the Premier League and although they sit seven points above the relegation zone.
