Ahmed Elmohamady was an unused sub as Sunderland claimed a vital 2-0 victory at Bolton to jump six places in the English Premier League. Late goals by Stephane Sessegnon and Nicklas Bendtner made the difference for the Black Cats, who registered their first away win of the campaign. For the first time in nine matches, Egypt full-back Elmohamady was not called by Steve Bruce, who relied on John O'Shea and Sebastian Larsson on the right flank. Sunderland, who moved to 12th place with nine points, will be hosting Aston Villa at the Stadium of Light next weekend.
