RLB POST BLACKBURN

Sunderland came from behind once again but conceded a late equaliser at Ewood Park. Regis Le Bris reacted to our Boxing Day draw...


GAME OF TWO HALVES

"Again it is not a bad result, against a good team again. Probably we can have some regrets after the game because we started very slowly and the opponent started well because they were at home and they pushed during the first few minutes. But I think we should have played better at that moment. We suffered from their pressure and the first half wasn't our best half so far. We reacted well in the second half and it shows that we have a good mentality, we can react and play good football. But that was after 45 minutes. At the end the game was very unstable because of the scenario, probably because of the way we played and the opponent as well. We conceded the second goal at the end with one, two or three chances before to score a goal for ourselves."


WILSON GOAL

"Even if he didn't score for maybe five or six games, he worked hard for the team. He was always connected and we trusted him from the beginning, even during this bad period for a striker. But today he scored and it was important for us. It is a question of mentality, you have to keep the consistency even when the dynamic is a little bit lower you have to work and do your best."


RIGG INJURY

"We'll see. I don't know at the minute but I hope it is not too serious. Riggy is playing well, he is well-engaged and is always connected with the team. He is a hard worker, a talented player, many things and he is important for us so I hope he will be with us in the next games."


A WORD FOR THE FANS

"They were impressive once again. It's very important for us. Even during that first half where we were not at our best level, they were there with us. During the second half they gave us an extra high energy which we really needed for a team away. We are really lucky to have these fans behind us."
