Nedum Onuoha Video

Goals from Nedum Onuoha, Asamoah Gyan and Danny Welbeck gave Sunderland a deserved 3-0 victory over Premier League leaders Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. It was Chelsea's first home defeat since March and their first at the hands of Sunderland since 2001. The visitors stunned Carlo Ancelotti's side on the stroke of half-time when Onuoha dribbled his way through the home defence to score. Gyan added the second just after half-time with a cool finish and Welbeck seized on a poor backpass by Ashley Cole in the 87th minute to hand Chelsea their second defeat in three games. Chelsea went into the game hoping to stretch their lead at the top of the table to five points but they never looked likely of winning this encounter. The Wearsiders made a solid start and warned Chelsea inside the opening few minutes. Midfielder Lee Cattermole cleverly intercepted an intended pass from Branislav Ivanovic and played the ball out to Gyan on the left. The Sunderland striker, who scored the equaliser in their 1-1 against Tottenham in midweek, sent his shot just wide of the far post. Chelsea, who beat Sunderland 7-2 last season, were struggling to make headway against Steve Bruce's side. Chelsea's new defensive partnership of Paulo Ferriera and Ivanovic, forced upon them by injuries to captain John Terry and Alex, struggled to cope with the movement of Gyan and Welbeck. In the 18th minute Chelsea managed to fashion their first real chance when John Mikel Obi put Nicolas Anelka in the clear but he <b>...</b>

More StoriesBent vows to keep scoring Deco denies Brazil betrayal The Manchester City defender was born in the African country but moved to the UK when he was seven. He has been stalling on a decision on his international future to see what the likelihood was of him making a successful elevation into the senior ranks after being a member of the U21 squad that reached last summer's European Championship final. However, having seen limited first-team action at City - first under Mark Hughes and now Roberto Mancini - Onuoha is keen to hear from Nigeria coach Lars Lagerback ahead of this summer's finals in South Africa. "I would like to play in the remaining six games for City. If I did that maybe the chance would be there to play for Nigeria," Onuoha told the Manchester Evening News. "But if I am not playing week in, week out, I wouldn't expect to receive a call from anyone because that wouldn't be right. "Everyone wants to play in the World Cup, but things have to be right and you have to be selected."
