FT
FULL-TIME! West Brom come from behind to beat the Saints and it's a second-half goal from Hal Robson-Kanu, on his first start for the club, which proves decisive.
Thanks for tuning in.

The Saints are still giving it everything, despite playing with a man short. Successive corners are well defending by the visitors though.
