// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Sunderland boss Steve Bruce was disappointed after seeing a late own goal deny the Black Cats a famous win over Manchester United.[LNB] Anton Ferdinand diverted Patrice Evra's shot into his own net two minutes into stoppage time to rescue United a 2-2 draw at Old Trafford.[LNB]Sunderland twice led in the game thanks to goals from Darren Bent and Kenwyne Jones and Bruce was left to rue another late strike from United.[LNB]"It is totally disappointing," said Bruce. "I don't know what the stat is for the number of times Manchester United have done that but it is what makes this club what it is I suppose.[LNB]"It just proves you have to go down to the wire.[LNB]"Even when they don't play well, they always seem to get something out of it. And the Ayatollah himself just sits there and watches.[LNB]"That is what he has brought to the club. They never give in."[LNB]Bruce admitted Kieran Richardson had been stupid in getting himself sent off six minutes from time for kicking the ball away.[LNB]"It was stupid," added Bruce.[LNB]"It is hard enough to defend here with 11 players. These things happen in the heat of the moment but it could have cost us the game."[LNB]
