Southampton returned to winning ways with a 2-0 win over Aston Villa at St Mary’s in the Premier League on Saturday.

An early goal from Shane Long and a late one from Stuart Armstrong earned Southampton’s first league double under Ralph Hasenhüttl.

The Saints dominated the first half and took an early lead through Long. He scored his fourth goal of the season from Moussa Djenepo’s left-wing cross.
