At Sunderland

It was confirmed on 22 June 2011 that Westwood would join Sunderland on 1 July on a free transfer. [ 9 ] He made his first start for Sunderland on 23 August in the League Cup defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion . His first Premier League appearance came against Aston Villa on 29 October, when he was brought on to replace the injured Simon Mignolet . Westwood later denied former Sunderland striker Darren Bent a goal after the striker was through one on one, with the game level at 1–1. [ 10 ] In the following game, away to Manchester United, Westwood made a 'magnificent double save' to deny Wayne Rooney and Patrice Evra , but United won 1–0. Despite Sunderland struggling for results, which saw Steve Bruce sacked on 30 November, Westwood remained in good form. However, after missing Sunderland's 1–0 victory over Manchester City on New Year's Day 2012, Westwood found himself second choice to Mignolet for the remainder of the season. [ citation needed ] Westwood remained behind Mignolet in the pecking order at the start of the 2012–13 season, with the Belgian playing in Sunderland's first two league games, although Westwood did play in Sunderland's League Cup victories over Morecambe and Milton Keynes Dons before a 1–0 defeat to Middlesbrough in the fourth round, a game in which Westwood also played. Following Mignolet's departure to Liverpool at the end of the season, Westwood regained his place as Sunderland's first choice keeper, with competition now coming from Vito Mannone . At the end of 2013–14 season, he was released by the club. [ 11 ] — Wikipedia
