Watch: Chemsdine Talbi scores as Sunderland stun Newcastle United in Tyne-Wear Derby

Moroccan winger Chemsdine Talbi was on target for  Sunderland as they came from behind to stun rivals Newcastle United at St James’ Park on Sunday in a Tyne- Wear Derby.

Talbi and Dutchman Brian Brobbey scored for the visitors while England forward Anthony Gordon found the back of the net for Eddie Howe’s men in the Premier League contest.

The 20-year-old Atlas Lion levelled matters for the Black Cats with a close-range finish after making the most of a corner kick to beat Newcastle goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale.

The goal cancelled out Anthony Gordon’s first-half opener for the Magpies.

The Magpies had an effort ruled out for offside in the second half and looked like they were close to finding a late winner.

However, against the run of play, the unexpected happened.

Brobbey scored on the stroke of full time from a rebound after Ramsdale had punched an initial effort, to earn Sunderland the three points.

The Dutchman eventually made way for Mozambican left-back Reinildo Mandava in added time in a defensive move to preserve the delicate lead for the visitors.

With the latest result, the Black Cats have completed a double of victories over the Magpies at home and away since earning promotion to the Premier League.

Sunderland climbed into 11^th place, one point above the 12^th placed Newcastle United who surprisingly threw Congolese forward Yoane Wissa into action very late in the game to come face-to-face with compatriot Noah Sadiki in Sunderland colours.

The going is getting tough for the men for Howe who are smarting from a 5-2 loss to Barcelona during a midweek UEFA Champions League match.
