Go behind the scenes, as Sunderland beat Chelsea at the Stadium Of Light.

Sunderland moved off the bottom of the Premier League table with a spirited 1-0 win over Chelsea at the Stadium of Light.

Enzo Le Fée's penalty after 36 minutes separated the sides, as the Black Cats picked up their first Premier League win since August.

Despite what the league table said before the game, and an early injury to captain Granit Xhaka, Sunderland started the game firmly the better side, with Chemsdine Talbi involved a lot on his return to a Premier League starting side.

He put in two excellent crosses from the left within three minutes of each other, the second resulting in a glorious chance for Brobbey, which he could only divert wide.

The Dutchman was in inspired form today at the Stadium of Light, featuring in his first Premier League match since signing his new contract with the club.

He gave the Chelsea defence a warning sign of his qualities with a powerful run from the halfway line after 28 minutes, and then won the physical battle with Levi Colwill in emphatic style to win the Black Cats a penalty.

Le Fée dispatched the spot-kick for his fourth goal of the season, and the Lads took a deserved lead into the break.

The match took on an ill-tempered nature from the start, and tensions threatened to boil over at times when players from both sides clashed on multiple occasions.

With the Stadium of Light rocking though, the Black Cats faithful cheered loudly for every tackle, clearance and block as they witnessed a resolute display at the back.

Robin Roefs stood firm between the sticks, but in truth was not really tested by a misfiring Chelsea front three, which included former Sunderland striker Danny Welbeck in the second half.

Wilson Isidor missed a golden chance to double our advantage with 13 minutes to go. He was denied from close-range by Mike Penders.

It proved inconsequential though, as the Lads held on firm in the face of moderate pressure from the Blues, seeing the feel-good factor return to the Stadium of Light ahead of the November international break.
