Sunderland matchwinner Borini: Liverpool pals flooding my phone!

Sunderland matchwinner Fabio Borini admits his phone is "buzzing" from Liverpool teammates after his spotkick against Chelsea.

Borini did his parent club a huge favour by converting a late winner from the spot at Stamford Bridge.

The striker said: "My phone is still vibrating now!

"I'm not sure exactly who, but it's probably just my friends joking about me and the goal.

"If I did think about what the goal would mean for Liverpool it was only for a fraction.

"I only really thought about Sunderland, this is the shirt I'm wearing now and this relegation battle is very important for the club, for the team and for me."
