Sunderland fans were out in force on Bonfire Night to watch their side compete in the Europa League. Supporters headed to the Stadium of Light in Sunderland to see the Black Cats take on Dinamo Zagreb on Thursday night.

Red fireworks lit up the sky above the stadium prior to the team entering the pitch. Sunderland lost 2-0 with Dinamo Zagreb scoring in the 22nd and 39th minute of the game.

Sunderland finished seventh in the Premier League last season after earning promotion back to the top tier. The position meant they secured a spot in Europe for the first time in 53 years.

They have previously beat AZ Alkmaar and Torreense and drew with Lech Poznan. The Black Cats are yet to take on Jagiellonia, AC Milan, Anderlect and Levski Sofia.
