Half-Time Report: Sunderland and Swansea City level

Sunderland and Swansea City are level in their Premier League clash despite some good chances.

Neither side have broken the deadlock despite some good chances in this afternoon's Premier League clash between Sunderland and Swansea City.

A lively start from Swansea saw Bafetimbi Gomis find Wayne Routledge, but the winger was unable to find a way through a tight Black Cats defence.

The move, which had initially started in a promising fashion, ended with the ball blasted well over the bar.

Sunderland's response came in the form of Sebastian Larsson and Adam Johnson, who both forced good saves from Swans keeper Lukas Fabianski.

Patrick van Aanholt was the next to try his luck, but his shot sailed well over the goal.

Lee Cattermole then hit a drive from the edge of the area which was deflected behind as the two teams went in with the score 0-0 at the break.
