 Ehiogu and Riggott have missed much of Boro's campaign |
Defenders Ugo Ehiogu and Chris Riggott returned to action for Middlesbrough's reserves after recovering from their respective long-term injuries. They both played in the heart of the defence as Boro were beaten 2-1 by a second-string Sunderland side.
Ehiogu, who has been out with an Achilles problem since last year, came through an hour's workout.
Riggott, sidelined with an ankle injury since August, played the full 90 minutes for Colin Cooper's side.
