The game was closely contested, with Sunderland initially thinking they had taken the lead in the first half, only to have Igor Thiago's goal ruled out for offside.

However, Sunderland's goalkeeper, Robin Roefs, made a crucial save by stopping Kevin Schade's penalty, but was eventually beaten in the 77th minute when Thiago's header clipped the bar and crossed the line.

The team quickly equalized just five minutes later, with Enzo Le Fee calmly slotting home from the spot after Habib Diarra was fouled in the box.

The game remained finely balanced at 1-1, until Wilson Isidor completed the turnaround by heading in Granit Xhaka's cross and sending the Stadium of Light into wild celebrations.

Le Bris praised the team's ability to manage the game with two different halves, saying "I am happy and we went until the end. We tried to win this game and it was really positive, the way we managed the game with two different halves."

He also highlighted the importance of having starters and finishers in the team, saying "I told the players from the beginning of the season that we will have starters and finishers, and that was really important today because in the Premier League we are always on the edge."
