The first half saw the Reds come off worse from a relatively end-to-end affair, when Manuel Ugarte deflected a Saints corner into his own net, a couple of minutes before the break.
Southampton proved difficult opponents to break down, especially with a one-goal advantage behind them, but Amad came up trumps in our time of need. Our no.16 finally managed to breach Aaron Ramsdale's goal in the 82nd minute.
Not content with a point, the Ivorian went back for more with stoppage time approaching, poking home a Christian Eriksen pass in front of the Stretford End, before adding a third with seconds left on the clock, single-handedly rescuing the win for the Reds.
