Chelsea Beaten as Sunderland end Mourinho's unbeaten Stamford Bridge Record

Records have it that Chelsea Manager Jose mourinho has had a 77-match unbeaten record at the Stamford Bridge, it suddenly came to an end after his side lost to Sunderland 1-2 in a Premier League maTh on Saturday.

Fabio Borini scored a late penalty, as Sunderland dented Chelsea’s title ambitions as they trail Liverpool on the standings.

Samuel Eto’o volleyed home from a corner kick, Sunderland had other ideas and they quickly levelled through Connor Wickham.

The Black Cats were awarded a penalty after Cesar Azpilicueta seemed to foul Jozy Altidore in the area. Borini stepped up and coolly slotted the ball home, as Gus Poyet’s men continue their fight to escape relegation.
