(Reuters) - Sunderland improved their chances of avoiding the drop while leaving Norwich City nervously looking over their shoulders by securing a 3-0 win from their only three shots on target at Carrow Road on Saturday.

A first-half penalty from Fabio Borini, after he had been fouled by Andre Wisdom, and a strike early in the second half from Jermain Defoe, who took his tally to 16 goals from 30 matches this season, put Sunderland in control.
