Sunderland supporters packed into the Stadium of Light once again as Régis Le Bris’ side welcomed Brighton in the Premier League.
The Black Cats were looking to respond after a difficult run of results, with the home crowd creating another strong atmosphere on Wearside despite the eventual disappointment on the pitch.
Our photographer Chris Fryatt was on hand before and during the game to capture supporters around the ground, in the stands and backing their team throughout the afternoon.
Here are some of the best fan pictures from Sunderland’s clash with Brighton.
