Michael Chopra " bagged a brace" as the Bluebirds secured three more points with a valuable win at Sunderland. After taking a very early lead on 4 minutes the home side hit back to level, but the Bluebirds went in front again to lead 2-1 at half time....

Geordie boy Michael Chopra scored both goals thanks to support from Paul Parry and despite a second half fightback from the black cats the Welsh team came away with all the points. Happy Haloween!
