# GALLERY: Our 5 previous meetings with Sunderland

**Mauricio Pochettino and his side return from a two week international break this weekend with a visit to struggling Sunderland.**

The Argentinian is yet to see his side win a game this season, and he will be hoping to earn his first three points at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.

Ahead of the fixture, we take a look at Spurs’ last five meetings with The Black Cats through a series of images:

The last meeting between the two came at White Hart Lane back in January, when Christian Eriksen’s 88th minute winner gave the hosts the win.

In the reverse fixture, Pochettino’s men looked set for three points, until Harry Kane found the back of the next six minutes from time – only problem being, it was his own.

Five months previous, Kane was on the scoresheet at the right end, as Spurs hit five past The Black Cats in a one-sided mauling.

An own goal proved decisive again back at The Stadium of Light – John O’Shea the unfortunate party this time after Paulinho cancelled out Adam Johnson’s opener.

The meeting before that was Gareth Bale’s last appearance for Spurs. Fittingly, the Welshman won the match with an injury-time strike, before departing for Madrid.
