Nevin says Sunderland will have regrets after Newcastle defeat

Former Scotland winger Pat Nevin feels Sunderland will have regrets after their FA Cup home defeat to Newcastle.

The visitors were comfortable 3-0 winners on Saturday.

Nevin told BBC Sport: "Sunderland have worked hard and I think they will be disappointed with the first half - they were a bit timid.

"But if you look at the differences in finances in these clubs, the result was always going to be a tough one for Sunderland."

Alexander Isak struck twice, with Daniel Ballard also putting through his own net.
