A Fred own-goal from a deflected Che Adams strike gave Saints a first-half lead, before Mason Greenwood’s low effort levelled a high-energy encounter.
The result means Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have picked up four points from our opening two games of the league season, with the club also matching Arsenal's top-flight record of 27 games unbeaten away from home.
FIRST HALF – FAST, FURIOUS, BUT FRUSTRATING
A ferocious noise from the returning home and away supporters inside St Mary’s was met by an equally energetic start to the match. It was Saints who had the first chance to cause pressure though, when a long-range James Ward-Prowse free-kick forced David De Gea to tip the ball round his right-hand post and behind for a corner.
