00:00Sunderland were singing in the rain at the Stadium of Light
00:05after Brian Brobby headed home from a corner
00:07to give the Black Cats a huge 3-2 win over Bournemouth
00:10with Sunderland having been 2-0 down early in the first half.
00:14The visitors were clinical in the opening period
00:17with their first goal coming on the counter-attack
00:19and their second, a lobbed effort from Tyler Adams
00:22from the edge of the centre circle showing their individual quality.
00:26Back came Sunderland though, a penalty from Enzo Le Fay
00:29giving them a foothold before Bertrand Traore
00:32and then Brobby flipped the game on its head.
00:35Was this Sunderland's most impressive win of the season?
00:38Well, Regis Labrice wasn't sure, but he admitted with a grin
00:41that the weather did help his side.
00:46I don't know. I think we had good results and good performances before.
00:53This one is different and I think the weather was perfect for us.
00:59The crowd was really hot and the conditions were good for Sunderland.
01:04And we need this resilience, we need this character and keep going.
01:10I think when you are winning 2-0 and you go back home with zero points,
01:16it's hard. It's hard. We knew that it was going to be a difficult game.
01:21And especially, I think, lately it's costing us a lot the defensive set plays.
01:27We've considered two set plays, we've considered the penalty.
01:29And we knew, you know, it was one of their strengths.
01:34A hugely frustrating day for Bournemouth
01:36after they had done so well to establish a solid lead in the match.
01:41Sunderland will not care though.
01:43They're up to fourth in the Premier League
01:45and over halfway to their target of 40 points
01:48to make certain of their survival in the top flight.
01:50The Black Cats also remain unbeaten at home in the league,
01:54a record they will not want to give up easily.
01:56Of course though, their next home outing
01:58sees them welcome Newcastle United to Wearside,
02:02which will be quite the occasion.
02:05Before that though, La Brice's side faced two tough away trips.
02:08First, at Anfield against Liverpool.
02:11Before then, Manchester City, managed by Pep Guardiola.
02:14First, at Anfield against Liverpool.
