After Graziano Pelle poked Southampton ahead in the 45th minute Tadic took over with an impressive display, scoring quick-fire goals midway through the second half to give the south coast club their first victory of the season.

Norwich defender Steven Whittaker was dismissed having received two yellow cards within four first-half minutes for professional fouls.

Victory moved Southampton up to 10th with five points while Norwich sit one point adrift in 14th.
