Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill has praised his side for their display against Everton but was left to rue missed chances in their eventual 2-1 defeat.
O'Neill also revealed his frustration at the display of referee Lee Mason, feeling that some key decisions did not go in his side's favour. He also reiterated his belief that the players will soon turn the corner, adding: "We were standing very firm. We were coping very well with the pressure. "Of course, as it gets more intense little decisions here and there might go against us and we had one or two today that I'm very unhappy with. "I think it is epitomised by Danny Rose's booking at the end of the game for diving. It is an extraordinary decision. "We have been beaten today and that's a major blow. We should have got something and we have taken nothing, but things will turn."
