Former Sunderland defender Kevin Kilbane: 'Bradford City deserve win'

Kilbane: 'Bradford deserve win'

Former Sunderland defender Kevin Kilbane has admitted that Bradford City fully deserved their victory over the Black Cats in the FA Cup.

Bradford continued their giant-killing run in the competition on Sunday as a 2-0 victory at Valley Parade put them through to the quarter-finals.

The draw for the last eight of the competition will be made on Monday night.

"Sunderland's players couldn't compete with the tempo that Bradford started with, but they also had the quality to go with the tempo," Kilbane told BBC Sport.

"To a man Bradford were so much better. You could have had 11 men of the match today and they scored two great goals.

"You have to give credit for the way Bradford have played but Sunderland have been miserable today. Gus Poyet's side have shown very little."

Sunderland continue their Premier League campaign on Saturday when they welcome West Bromwich Albion to the Stadium of Light.
