Setback for Southampton boss Martin as he reveals details of Smallbone injury - Paul Vegas

Martin later stressed, "I was extremely pleased with many aspects of the performance and the overall efforts of the team."

"Mateus was one foul away from getting red-carded as well because he'd had a booking and made a few and was a bit fatigued from his international travels.

"I will look at the change we made and all that stuff but I think genuinely the red-card has really changed the game for us.

"I think it was a brilliant time for us to get through a difficult moment when we conceded 2-1 and felt we did and then that happened."

On Will Smallbone's injury, Martin added: "It looks like he's tweaked his hamstring again which is really disappointing for him and for us.

"He soldiered on and battled through the last 10-15 minutes with that for the team because that's the kind of guy he is."
