Charlie Austin scored a late winner less than 10 minutes after coming on for his Southampton debut as the Saints stunned Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League.
Southampton frustrated the hosts throughout at Old Trafford and Louis van Gaal’s side finished the match having had just one shot on target – a speculative first-half effort from Daley Blind that was easily saved by Fraser Forster.
United created very little in the way of chances in the opening period and it was the visiting Saints who had the only opportunity of note when Sadio Mane and Dusan Tadic exchanged passes before the former just failed to bring the ball down and shoot with only David de Gea to beat.
With the score goalless at half time, United failed to score in the opening 45 at home for the 11th match in a row.
