Sunderland are the latest football club to take on the #MannequinChallenge.

The Premier League outfit, who currently sit rock-bottom of the English top-flight standings, despite recording their first league win of the 2016/17 season after defeating AFC Bournemouth 2-1 on Saturday, have followed suit and tried to better Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund’s efforts from yesterday [Monday].

David Moyes’ men, who are already six points adrift of safety at the wrong end of the standings, have lost eight of their opening 11 league fixtures this term.

The Black Cats, who face newly promoted Hull City next Saturday after the international break, tweeted their #MannequinChallenge effort, which included the likes of Jermain Defoe, Patrick van Aanholt, Jason Denayer, Victor Anichebe and Steven Pienaar.

Judge for yourself! Have struggling Sunderland surpassed the efforts of Mario Gotze, Shinji Kagawa and Marco Reus at Dortmund?
