Wilson Isidor declared the Sunderland squad 'special' as they secured a vital 3-2 win over Middlesbrough, marking the first league double over their rivals since the 1961-62 season. This victory narrows the gap to second-place Sheffield United. Goals from Delano Burgzorg, Dan Neil, and a decisive own goal by Ryan Giles showcased Sunderland's resilience, particularly after Isidor's struggles with penalties against Burnley. His successful comeback includes a new contract with the club until 2028, reflecting his commitment and emotional bond with the fans.
"We really wanted to win and take six points from them because it's important in our title race."
"Nothing is too much for these fans and this club, which is why my emotions were a bit too much."
