Sunderland secured a 1-0 victory over Fulham at the Stadium of Light on Sunday, with Wilson Isidor scoring the decisive goal. The result marked Sunderland's first win of the new campaign, according to reports from Yahoo Sports Canada and the BBC.
Isidor had earlier struck the woodwork before finding the net four minutes later, as noted by SportsAdda. The goal proved enough to separate the two sides in a tightly contested match.
Fulham have now lost both of their opening league games this season, per SportsAdda's match coverage. The defeat extends their difficult start to the campaign.
Sunderland head coach Regis Le Bris acknowledged the team's ongoing development following the victory. "It is a process for us," he said, according to beinsports.com, urging patience despite the positive result.
The win provides Sunderland with early momentum as they look to build on their return to the top flight. Fulham, meanwhile, will need to address their early-season struggles quickly to avoid falling further behind.
Both teams will now turn their attention to their upcoming fixtures, with Sunderland aiming to maintain their winning form and Fulham searching for their first points of the season.
