Evening all and welcome to the virtual south coast, where Southampton entertain Brighton! And us, hopefully...

So there we go! Thanks for your company, and goodnight.

Well! Brighton have proper got away with that one. They were awful in the first half and two down with less than half an hour left, but their second-half aggression got them a huge point that'll feel like a win. The teams stay where they are in the table, 13th and 14th respectively.

Full-time: Southampton 2-2 Brighton

Bertrand bends a belter over the wall towards the far post as Ryan takes a step the other way, but recovers brilliantly to fly across his goal and shove away!

Locadia, who's had an awful little cameo, pulls down Ward-Prowse on the edge of the box. Has he ruined everything?

There'll be four added minutes.

GOAL! Southampton 2-2 Brighton (Murray pen) McCarthy dives to his right and Murray clips confidently into the middle.

PENALTY BRIGHTON! Another corner, and Ward-Prowse pulls at Duffy! Oh the silly, silly boy!

What a save! In comes the corner, it's directed back across, and Murray stoops to head ... McCarthy looks to have gone early, but somehow manages to scoop the ball over the top!

Knockaert is doing his best to inspire Brighton, and when Murray flicks on, Locadia takes over and Knockaert forces McCarthty to tip behind.

Brighton are still trying, but they've no spark.

McCarthy takes his time over the goalkick and is booked.

Brighton win a free-kick on halfway and hump in towards the box, but Duffy can't get a proper head on it and the ball skims his barnet before going behind.

Final change for Southampton: Davis replaces Ings, to add midfield ballast.

Brighton haven't really crated anything since pulling a goal back.

Lemina passes back to McCarthy from the halfway line, Steve McMahon-style.

It's all Brighton now - Southampton should probably have brought on an extra midfielder or defender, because no way do they need two strikers.

Knockaert shows nice feet to dance down the right before crossing for Jahanbakhsh, who prods goalwards but not with any power. But Brighton maintain pressure and Knockaert shows up down the left, crossing for Jahanbakhsh at the near post, whose clever flick goes just wide.

Gabbiadini gets away from Stephens and drifts wide, waiting for the scything challenge which duly arrives. Yellow card.

Southampton's changes, meanwhile, were like for like. That's ballsy from Hughes.
