Report, result and goals as Talbi gives Black Cats stunning late win

Chemsdine Talbi scored a 93rd-minute winner as Sunderland claimed a stunning 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge to, at least temporarily, go second in the Premier League.

Chelsea appeared set to make a difficult afternoon for Regis Le Bris’ men when. Alejandro Garnacho fired in a fourth-minute opener.

However, the Blues were poor thereafter and Wilson Isidor drew Sunderland level in the 22nd minute, with clear-cut chances then few and far between as the visitors frustrated Enzo Maresca’s side.

Sunderland grew in confidence as an often scrappy contest edged towards a conclusion, their fans cheering vociferously every time they won a 50-50 tackle.

And the travelling hordes from Wearside were sent into raptures when Brian Bobbey held the ball up brilliantly for Talbi, who secured Sunderland’s best result since returning to the top with composed finish into the bottom-right corner.
