Bags assist
Angulo assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 5-3 defeat to Manchester City.
Analysis: Angulo would bag his first assist of the season Sunday, with the forward linking up with Brian Brobbey in the 59th minute. This gives Angulo his second goal contribution of the season, as he also scored in the season opener. The forward has also matched his start tally from the 2025/26 season already, starting in all five of his appearances after only five starts in a minimal eight appearances last campaign.
Limited in defeat
Angulo had two tackles (one won) in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Arsenal.
Analysis: Angulo started on the left side of Sunderland's attack but struggled to translate his involvement into chances, failing to record a shot or cross before being withdrawn with 20 minutes remaining. Malick Fofana replaced him as Sunderland chased an equalizer, potentially creating additional competition for minutes on the flank. Angulo has remained involved regularly through Sunderland's first four Premier League matches, scoring one goal over that span.
