Bournemouth 1-3 Saints, League One, 2010/11

The third win in an unbelievable run that saw Saints drop just four points from 15 games on their way to promotion from the third-tier.

Bournemouth took an early lead through Lauri Dalla Valle, but Lee Barnard headed home to make the score 1-1 at half-time.

It took until the 71st minute for Saints to take the lead as Dean Hammond slid home, and the three points were confirmed as Rickie Lambert powered home a superb free-kick.

This season saw the two sides face each other three times in league and cup having only met twice in the previous 50 years.

Saints team: Davis, Butterfield, Fonte, Jaidi, Harding (Seaborne), Hammond, Chaplow (Richardson), Lallana, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lambert, Barnard (Gobern)
