Chris Hughton "satisfied" with point at Sunderland

Norwich City manager Chris Hughton says that he is "satisfied" with his team's performance in their 0-0 draw at Sunderland.

Norwich City manager Chris Hughton has said that he is "satisfied" with a point in his side's 0-0 draw with Sunderland this afternoon.

Norwich survived a second-half scare as Steven Fletcher hit the post and Ki Sung-Yeung fired over the bar with 15 minutes remaining.

"Overall we are satisfied, and with the fact that it was a clean sheet as well. Irrespective of where Sunderland are in the league at this moment, it was always going to be a tough game," Hughton told the club's official website.

"It was a fairly open game at times. I thought we showed really good resilience.

"We broke really well and we got into some good area. We're a bit disappointed that we didn't come away with a win."

The draw means that Norwich are now 14th in the Premier League, six points clear of the relegation zone.
