📈 Sunderland star breaks decade-long curse with equaliser at Ipswich
Sunderland needed a moment of magic in their Premier League opener against Ipswich Town, and Nilson Angulo delivered exactly that.
Approaching half-time at Portman Road, the Black Cats were trailing the newly promoted side after an opening goal from Emersonn.
However, a little over five minutes before the break, Angulo ended a decade-long Sunderland curse to put them back on level terms.
To put it simply - he scored a direct free-kick. Bizarrely, the first time Sunderland have done so in a Premier League fixture in over 10 years.
Patrick van Aanholt, in a match against Everton back in May 2016, was the previous player to do so.
Talk about getting back on level terms in style!
