Your Southampton v Derby County Match Reports

SaintPaulVW added 18:54 - Apr 11 Right result but didn't make it easy for ourselves. Two good goals and unfortunately a solid goal let in but we squandered a lot of chances. Derby were a solid Championship team, hard tackling and left their feet in. To our credit, we rose above it and although didn't hit the heights of the Wrexham game we ground out a win. At this stage of the season, the result is more important than the performance. After Ipswich beating Norwich second place is probably unachievable now but with agent Ings scoring the winning goal to beat Hull, third place is becoming a possibility. Fantastic stuff from Tonda seeing as we were 21st back in November. UTFS!

Bawdrip added 21:46 - Apr 11 Great win in a hard fought game. Well deserved over the 90 mins. I thought Downes had a great game.

TimSaint added 11:36 - Apr 12 Great result coming from behind to win. Controlled the game but final third decisions let us down, along with some poor shooting. Great Leo goal to get us back in it Once THB put us in front, there was only one winner. Just a shame we didn't add to the goal tally, especially with those great chances on the break. Downes shaded MOTM for me, but most played well considering the bullying tactics and lack of protection from the ref with all those late "challenges". All the subs contributed as well, apart from Edozie, who I thought was the laziest, slowest and most uninterested player on the pitch and Downes had to track back for him a good few times. Win - tick Move on to the next game on Tuesday, knowing that a win would take us into 4th place, just a point behind 3rd.
