Sunderland fall 2-0 to Dinamo Zagreb and Le Bris faces more pressure
Stojkovic and Beljo score as Sunderland lose at the Stadium of Light: one win in six games and bottom of the Premier League.
Sunderland lost 2-0 to Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League on Thursday 5 November, in front of a furious Stadium of Light. Luka Stojkovic volleyed in the first goal in the first half and Dion Beljo doubled the lead before the break. According to Sky Sports, the pressure on Regis Le Bris has grown even further.
Before the game, the coach had admitted his side were too exposed at the back, and his players did not listen. The Black Cats hit the woodwork in both halves, through Thomas Meunier and Kevin Danso, while Dinamo also made goal-line blocks. Brian Brobbey came on in the second half but could not spark a comeback.
It is a torrid run: one win in six games in all competitions, and Sunderland sit bottom of the Premier League. Fans were booed at half time and headed for the exits well before the final whistle.
