Chelsea took an early lead against Sunderland in the Premier League, but lost out to the division’s bottom side after an incredible second half.
The Blues goal came from Samuel Eto’o, who volleyed in a Willian corner after just 11 minutes.
From then on, it appeared that Jose Mourinho’s men would go on to win at a canter, but Sunderland fought back when Connor Wickham pounced upon a rebound after Mark Schwarzer spilled Marcos Alonso’s shot.
In the second half, despite constant Chelsea pressure, it was Sunderland who took the lead late on through a contentious penalty scored by Fabio Borini, and the Black Cats held on to inflict a first home defeat on Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea in 77 matches, and aid their own fight against relegation.
