Scores in away defeat
Rigg scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Sunday's 4-3 defeat to Aston Villa.
Analysis: Rigg scored Sunderland's first goal as they lost 4-3 away to Aston Villa. He has started the last four Premier League matches in a row, bringing him to 10 starts for the season. The goal came in the ninth minute and brought the game back to 1-1. This was the youngster's first Premier League goal and was assisted by Noah Sadiki. He took two shots in the match, his second time in three games
Solid attacking display
Rigg had three shots (one on goal), three crosses (three accurate) and three chances created in Sunday's 2-1 win against Newcastle United.
Analysis: Rigg would come on for a third straight start Sunday and have a solid match as he tries to find a role in the team, recording three shots while setting up numerous other opportunities. However, the midfielder remains without a goal contribution this campaign, starting in eight of his 13 appearances. He will hope one comes soon as he earns more time, likely working at a bigger role next campaign.
