🤩 Sunderland forward breaks goalless streak with early Bournemouth strike

Sunderland headed to Bournemouth early on Saturday afternoon with the hope of ending their three-match losing streak in the Premier League.

The Black Cats put the Cherries under early pressure and were rewarded with the opening goal.

After just 19 minutes, Habib Diarra rifled a low shot at Đorđe Petrović, who spilled his saves straight to the feet of Eliezer Mayenda.

The Spanish attacker made no mistake by tapping in from a couple of yards out with a simple finish.

It was a welcome moment for Mayenda, who hadn't scored since Sunderland's 3-0 victory over West Ham in August.

Can Regis Le Bris' outfit hold their advantage at the Vitality Stadium?
