Sunderland pulled off a shock result at Stamford Bridge, coming from behind to beat Chelsea 2-1 and climb to second place in the Premier League table, ending the Blues' four-game winning streak across all competitions, Softfootball reports.

Chelsea entered the contest brimming with confidence after a commanding 5-1 win over Ajax in the UEFA Champions League , and that momentum seemed to carry over early on. Within just four minutes, Pedro Neto sparked a lightning counter-attack and fed Alejandro Garnacho, who raced down the left flank before slotting a low strike through Robin Roefs' legs.

It was the Argentine's first Premier League goal for Chelsea since completing his summer move from Manchester United , a moment that looked set to ignite the home crowd.
