Fulham 1 Sunderland 3
Roy Keane won't yet admit it, but Sunderland have surely won their fight for Premier League survival now.
Goals from Danny Collins, sub Michael Chopra and Kenwyne Jones were enough to earn Sunderland a third Premier League win on the spin - and all-but secure survival.
But while Sunderland's travelling Red & White Army left Craven Cottage in jubilant mood, floundering Fulham were left staring into the abyss.
Of course there is still a way to go before strong probabilities become mathematical certainties but it now seems just a matter of time until Sunderland's safety is confirmed.
The Black Cats' win over Fulham, coupled with Bolton's 4-0 hammering at Aston Villa, means the points gap between Sunderland and the relegation zone is now in double figures.
