Ralph Hasenhüttl remains at the top of the table with Southampton in the English Premier League. After a 2-1 win at Brighton on Monday night, the “Saints” climbed back up to fifth place.
Danny Ings scored decisively in the 81st minute with a penalty. The sanction was only imposed after a long study by the VAR, since it was questioned whether the offense had occurred in the penal area. Brighton had taken the lead in a duel between two teams from the south of England through Pascal Groß (26th) with a penalty, the Danish defender Jannik Vestergaard (45th) managed to equalize shortly before the whistle of the half.
In the second half of the game, the game was even before substitute Ings seized the opportunity from the point. Southampton’s main striker was out of the game for the last time for a month due to a knee injury. In the table, the Hasenhüttl team is only two points behind Chelsea third, while Leicester City is fourth. Southampton is four points behind leader Tottenham.
