Southampton slipped to a second successive away defeat, Ryan Manning’s fine strike unable to prevent a 2-1 loss at Norwich.
According to Sainstmarching.com, Adam Armstrong had a first-half penalty saved by Vladan Kovacevic after Léo Scienza was tripped by Harry Darling.
Soon after the restart, Jovon Makama darted across Nathan Wood to turn in at the near post.
Manning levelled with a low drive from range after a corner was only partially cleared, the ball breaking kindly before he beat Kovacevic to his left.
Wood was static again as Makama bundled in the winner from close range, a second error that settled it. The victory eased Norwich relegation fears and moved them within two points of safety.
Player ratings, out of 10: Gavin Bazunu six, Taylor Harwood-Bellis six, Nathan Wood four, Jack Stephens six.
Ryan Fraser five, Flynn Downes six, Caspar Jander six, Ryan Manning six.
Léo Scienza seven, Adam Armstrong six, Finn Azaz five. Substitutes, in order used, Welington five, Cameron Archer five, Jay Robinson five, Cam Bragg six, Oriol Romeu six. Player of the match Léo Scienza.
