SOUTHAMPTO­N

McCARTHY Booked 6 Responded whenever called upon, but had no chance with penalty CEDRIC Booked 6 Struggled at times, but his block stopped Knockaert VESTERGAAR­D 7 Brought calm and composure to Saints defence. Never hurried HOEDT 6 At times indecisive, but heroic last-ditch tackle denied Bissouma BERTRAND 6 Little to do defensivel­y, but good support act for Redmond REDMOND 7 Real live wire down left. Involved in some of his side’s best moments LEMINA 8 All-action game and won the ball to start move for Saints to score HOJBJERG 8 All of a sudden a goalscorer. Great strike to make it two in two ELYOUNOUSS­I 6 Deliveries from out wide were poor, but he tracked back well LONG 6 Unlucky in scramble, but touch let him down when put through INGS 8 Some really classy touches, worked hard and deserved goal SUBS: Ward-Prowse (Elyounouss­i 76) 5 Gabbiadini (Long 76) 5 Davis (Ings 84)

BRIGHTON

RYAN 6 Beaten from 30 yards by Hojbjerg, but hard to criticise him MONTOYA 6 Struggled to contain Redmond who had the better of their battle DUFFY 7 Put his body on the line numerous times, scored powerful header DUNK 6 Good block from Ings. Unlucky his header teed up Hojbjerg BONG 6 Lucky to get away with switching off when Elyounouss­i headed wide KNOCKAERT Booked 6 Showed flashes in the first half, but much livelier in the second STEPHENS Booked 6 Always willing to put his foot in, but unable to dictate play BISSOUMA 6 Mixed night. Some good passing, but occasional­ly wasteful, too PROPPER 5 Headed good chance wide after the break. Otherwise quiet MARCH 6 Had some good moments down the left, but no telling moment MURRAY 6 Put himself about and grabbed last-gasp leveller from the spot SUBS: Jahanbakhs­h (March 71) 6 Locadia (Bissouma 76) 6
