Fleetingly, it looked like Theo Walcott’s first goal since rejoining Southampton would yield a precious win. Instead it spurred Wolves, who struck back thanks to Pedro Neto and came close to claiming a victory that had looked unlikely for most of the match. By the end, Southampton were grateful to cling on for a draw and extend their unbeaten streak to seven matches.
“I’m very proud of my team because taking something was definitely not easy,” said Ralph Hasenhüttl. “You could see towards the end that [Wolves] had another gear to go. Seven games unbeaten is massive for us, unbelievable.”
