Ryan Seager (above left) scored one goal and set up the other to send Southampton top of Group A with a 2-0 victory over Bristol City. 

The 21-year-old opened the scoring after only four minutes with a thunderous strike before teeing up Marcus Barnes (above right) midway through the second half to beat Jojo Wollacott in the City goal.
