In the early hours of January 2nd, in the 19th round of the Premier League, Sunderland drew 0-0 with Manchester City to continue their unbeaten home run. Since the start of the season, the North East team has drawn with Arsenal (2-2), Manchester City (0-0), Liverpool, and even defeated Chelsea and Newcastle.
Against Aston Villa, a top-three team, Sunderland also held them to a draw. These results are truly remarkable, especially considering Sunderland is one of the three teams to be promoted in the 2025/26 season, along with Leeds United and Burnley.
Under the guidance of coach Regis Le Bris, the "Black Cats" have displayed disciplined play, solid defense, and the ability to effectively capitalize on counter-attacking opportunities. In their recent match against Man City, the team at The Light Stadium showed their tight defense and extremely determined play.
Despite Pep's team's excellent form, Sunderland still posed a significant challenge to their opponents. Earning points against strong teams not only helped Sunderland maintain their unbeaten home record but also propelled them to 7th place in the league table with 29 points after half a season.
This is a testament to the remarkable progress of a team that had spent eight years absent from the top English league. This achievement has received great praise from experts and fans, as newly promoted teams often face significant difficulties against the big clubs.
