Sunderland vs Chelsea

Sunderland won 1-0 at the Stadium of Light on Sunday, and it came from a penalty that both sets of fans will argue about for a while. It was only their second league win of the season and their first since 30 August. Enzo Le Fee scored from the spot in the 36th minute. Brian Brobbey ran through on goal and Levi Colwill was judged to have pulled him down. Some reports called the decision contentious. Earlier, VAR ruled that a foul on Cole Palmer happened just outside the area, so Chelsea got nothing. Colwill was booked and taken off at half-time. Granit Xhaka went off injured in the opening minutes for the hosts. Mike Penders kept Chelsea in it with a one-on-one save from Wilson Isidor in the second half, but they managed little in attack. Their first shot on target came right at the end of the first half, a routine stop for Robin Roefs. The result lifts Sunderland to 8 points and out of the bottom three. Chelsea stay on 16 points and slip out of the top four, with their fourth league defeat of the season.
