Southampton were dealt a late blow by Leicester on Saturday as the Foxes stole a late 2-1 victory in injury time.

Ryan Bertrand opened the scoring for the Saints at St Mary’s shortly after half-time, but Demarai Gray struck back soon after to level the scores.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg was then sent off for two yellows, leaving England international Harry Maguire to steal the three points for Leicester in the dying moments.

The Saints have started the Premier League season without a win in their three games, but a number of positive performances will have given some hope of their fortunes turning round soon.
