    End of 2nd Half
    90+4'
    FT: 0-4. Sunderland are brought crashing down to earth by Southampton, who were by far the better team after the first ten minutes and look to have a new star in Gabbiadini. As for Sunderland, relegation surely beckons.

    GOAL! 4-0. Oh dear. There's no pressure on Long as he exchanges a one-two with Ward-Prowse before side-footing into the bottom corner. Too easy.
