MAN OF THE MATCH?

Match summary

Southampton climbed out of the relegation zone with a 2-0 victory over Fulham at St Mary's Stadium.

Oriol Romeu opened the scoring on 23 minutes with a shot through a crowded penalty area following a corner kick. 

James Ward-Prowse reacted quickest after Sergio Rico had denied Nathan Redmond to double the advantage five minutes before half-time. 

Fulham's Aleksandar Mitrovic fired over within 30 seconds of half-time before team-mate Ryan Babel hit the crossbar with 16 minutes to play. 

The result means the Saints are now 17th with 27 points, 10 points and two places ahead of Fulham.
