LONDON – Sunderland continued their impressive Premier League return with a stunning 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. Chelsea struck early when Alejandro Garnacho netted in the fourth minute, cutting inside and finishing past goalkeeper Robin Roefs. Sunderland responded in the 22nd minute as Wilson Isidor capitalised on a defensive lapse to level the match from close range. Both sides struggled to break the deadlock in a tense second half, with Chelsea unable to penetrate Sunderland’s organised midfield and defence. Deep into stoppage time, substitute Chemsdine Talbi produced the decisive moment, collecting a pass from Brian Brobbey and guiding a low effort into the corner for his first Sunderland goal since joining in July.
