Sunderland striker Fabio Borini was taken to hospital during the club's 2-2 draw at Cardiff City on Sunday after complaining of feeling unwell, manager Gus Poyet revealed.

Borini was substituted at halftime of the match at the Cardiff City Stadium, with Sky Sports reporting that the 22-year-old Italian had subsequently collapsed in the changing room.
.
"He's at hospital now," Poyet said after the game.
.
"Fabio was feeling very bad before the game. Just before the game he was sick. We decided together to play, but then at halftime it was impossible for him.
.
"Now to make sure everything is all right we've taken him to hospital. Let's hope it is nothing and he can go back on the plane (to Sunderland) now."

Jack Colback scored a 95th-minute equaliser in the match, which left bottom club Sunderland two points from safety in the Premier League.
That's how terrible some injuries are so the players must just be therefore calm on the pitch to avoid big intjuries
It was a good one point Sunderland got in that game. They needed that before the end of 2013. I don't see them relegating.
