Sunderland v Spurs - media view with Martin Lipton of The Sun

What are your thoughts on tonight’s game at Sunderland?
Martin: “It won’t be easy - of course it won’t - but I believe this is a game Spurs should win. We saw Sunderland’s approach at the Lane, they defended for 90 minutes and had one great chance which they missed at 0-0. Last season it was complete domination by Spurs at the Stadium of Light but they had to wait until the 83rd minute when Ryan Mason scored the goal. It will be that sort of game, and very much about scoring the first goal. Sunderland picked up a point against Liverpool and made it tough for Chelsea but if you’ve got aspirations of winning the league - and Spurs rightly do - this is a game they should be looking to win.
