Front man returns following friendly setback

Sunderland striker Martyn Waghorn has returned to training following his recent knee injury. The 20-year-old limped out of last Tuesday's friendly against Munster XI after he had notched both his team's goals in a 2-1 win over the Irish side. The problem left manager Steve Bruce sweating on the youngster's fitness after he underwent tests to learn the extent of the problem. But the Black Cats boss enjoyed some good fortune as the former Leicester City loanee was given the all clear. The Hull City transfer target flew out to Portugal for the club's Algarve training camp on Monday and took part in practice on Tuesday.
