Sunderland were denied a vital victory over Tottenham Hotspur as Robbie Keane netted in the 89th minute to snatch a 1-1 draw in a frenetic encounter at the Stadium of Light.
Both sides headed into the only Premier League fixture of the weekend level on points, with relegation still threatening amid congested standings in the lower half of England's highest tier.
Spurs were eyeing a third straight league success, but were dealt a hammer blow after just three minutes as the impressive Kieran Richardson raced onto a loose ball before dispatching coolly.
A gutsy and end-to-end match then ensued, with Sunderland looking set for the three points, despite a number of missed chances in front of goal, only for Keane to nestle home a first-time effort in the dying stages.
