Former Sunderland player Jack Clarke struck a 90th-minute winner for Ipswich Town on their return to the Premier League in a 2-1 win over the Black Cats. Under new head coach Gary O'Neil, the newly-promoted team named seven new signings in their starting XI and one of them, Emersonn, opened the scoring after an error by Luke O'Nien. Nilson Angulo struck Sunderland level with a stunning free-kick just before the break but the European qualifiers couldn't kick-on after the break.
