Southampton 3 Heart of Midlothian 0
Saints started the game very brightly.
Corner forced. Mills whipped the ball in from the right, left footed.
Cleared. Only as far as Wotton, who hooked the ball over the advancing defence, back to Mills.
Mills adjusted quickly and sweetly flashed a half volley just over the bar.
From a Murty throw, Wotton again helped the ball forward, high in the air to John.
The Trinidad and Tobago hitman killed the ball instantly and held off all challenges.
Lallana was quick to collect the shielded ball from John, and ghost in from the right.
Lallana then arrowed a measured shot inside the upright.
Saints created another very good opening.
After some neat exchanges, they worked the ball to the supporting Murty.
Murty crossed low to the near post, where Mills arrived, but couldn't hit the target.
Mills pounced on a misunderstanding, intercepting the ball 35 yards out.
Mills advanced to the edge of the D, and drilled a shot straight at the keeper.
Davis had to get down smartly to his left and parry away a dipping shot.
Paterson was felled on the box edge.
Harding curled a good ball to the far post.
Rasiak drifted in behind the rearguard and touched home with the outside of his boot from close range.
Rasiak and Lallana countered swiftly. Finished with a fierce Rasiak shot from distance, well saved.
Harding then charged forward from left to middle, before switching play to Lallana on the right.
Lallana cut inside and hit another low shot on target. Saved.
Murty intercepted a throw from the keeper, and immediately stood the ball up at the far post for Rasiak to score with a header.
