And other effort on target!

Another corner. It's all Southampton...!

Big Les is effectively playing central CB, isn't he?

Header on target!

ABK on for Bednarek

Smallbone so easily dispossessed

Superb tackle Bednarek

Bindippers should score there

How many other team's pre-match songs do commentators stay silent during ...? #fawningtwats

I guess it might depend on whether the club has a first team coaching position in mind for Rusk under Rohl?

Dunno. Just thinking out loud.
