Brighton and Sunderland
10 October 2026
Brighton defeated Sunderland 2-0 in the Premier League, with experienced midfielder Pascal Groß continuing his outstanding early-season form. The German supplied the opening assist and became the oldest player since Ryan Giggs in 2012 to assist in three successive league games.
Groß played a precise pass for Maxim De Cuyper to open the scoring. His contribution extended an impressive season tally that has helped Brighton maintain their strong position near the top of the Premier League table.
