Sunderland AFC to Wear Special Shirts in Support of Foundation of Light

The match supports the Foundation of Light charity, with special warm-up shirts auctioned and potential donations reaching £100,000, officials said.

  • On Saturday, March 14, 2026, Sunderland host Brighton at the Stadium of Light with a 3pm kickoff, not broadcast live in the UK but available on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra.
  • Sunderland will be looking to recover from their FA Cup loss at Port Vale as Brighton have returned to form with wins over Brentford and Nottingham Forest, despite a recent defeat to Arsenal.
  • A single strike separated the teams after an eventful first half as Yankuba Minteh scored in the 58th minute, with Jack Hinshelwood denied by Melker Ellborg and a second-half goal ruled out for offside.
  • Sunderland suffered a third straight home defeat as Brighton reached 40 points and 10th place after the win, despite the match not being broadcast live in the UK.
  • Sunderland AFC fans can donate via bucket collections, lotteries, and texting FOLFIVE to 70085, with Lesley Spuhler saying 'Even if half the supporters in the ground were to text to donate, it would raise £100,000 to support our work, which would be life-changing'.
