Leeds 0 Sunderland 3:  Roy Keane's Sunderland renaissance gathered further momentum to leave Kevin Blackwell's tenure at Leeds hanging by a thread.

First-half goals from Republic of Ireland internationals Liam Miller and Graham Kavanagh - both new signings - were added to by compatriot Stephen Elliott shortly after the break to send 5,000 Sunderland fans into ecstasy.

This latest victory - Sunderland's third straight win and their second since Keane took the helm - was every bit as convincing as the scoreline suggests.
