Tony Mowbray reveals what PGMOL told Sunderland after controversial Dan Neil red card
Sunderland held a meeting after the controversial decision in their defeat against Middlesbrough

Tony Mowbray says Sunderland received an apology from the game’s refereeing body after the controversial defeat to Middlesbrough.

Sunderland and Middlesbrough were locked at 0-0 when Dan Neil was shown a second yellow card for dissent just before the interval, with the visitors going on to win 4-0.

Mowbray was left hugely frustrated with the decision at the time, and says that PGMOL reached out to the club for further discussions during the international break.

The head coach says that the assessor conceded after consulting the audio that the decision was harsh in the context of the rest of the game.
