Sunderland fans have raved about the performance of Dylan McGeouch against Accrington Stanley last night.

McGeouch has found game time hard to come by in 2019, but he was handed a rare start by Jack Ross yesterday and he seized his chance.

Sunderland picked up a 3-0 win against Accrington, with McGeouch arguably being the best player on the pitch.

The Scottish midfielder set the tone for his side, through his performance in midfield.

And the Sunderland supporters now feel that McGeouch has done enough to hold down a spot in their starting line-up for the games ahead.

Sunderland’s victory over Accrington was hugely important, as it strengthened their push for promotion.

The Black Cats were under pressure to bounce straight back from defeat at Wembley, and they did so in fine style.

Sunderland are now just three points away from the automatic promotion spots, and they have two games in hand over Barnsley in second.

Sunderland are next in action at the weekend, when they take on Rochdale.
