Granit Xhaka and Habib Diarra took to social media to thank Sunderland fans after the Black Cats’ resilient 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace. Despite failing to register a shot on target, Sunderland showed discipline and grit, with goalkeeper Robin Roefs delivering a man-of-the-match performance to secure a valuable point. The result marked the club’s first Premier League away clean sheet since 2017 and equalled their best-ever top-flight start with seven points from four games. Manager Régis Le Bris also confirmed that Enzo Le Fée missed out with a minor injury, though it is not thought to be serious.
