Dick Advocaat says Sunderland's Premier League future is in their own hands after Saturday's 2-1 win over 10-man Southampton.
Advocaat's men took all three points thanks to two penalties from Jordi Gomez, sandwiched by a Sadio Mane equaliser for the visitors.
And Advocaat told Sky Sports: "It was a very important win. Everything is still in our own hands with four games to go.
"We have seen what can be achieved if everyone works their socks off. It was great team performance and I am really proud of the way we got the three points."
Turning his attention to the penalty decisions, the Dutchman added: "In my opinion they were both penalties, good decisions by the referee, by the way."
