Premier League: Wolves fight back to deepen Southampton misery

Wolves leapfrogged Southampton into 12th in the table and Ralph Hasenhuettl's side, which has won only once in its last 11 league games, dropped to 13th.

Pedro Neto gave Wolves a lead in the 66th minute with a fine solo goal.

Southampton lost its sixth Premier League match in a row as Wolverhampton Wanderers mounted a second-half comeback to beat them 2-1 on Sunday and avenge a 2-0 loss to the Saints in the FA Cup on Thursday.

Southampton was the better team in the first half and took the lead when Stuart Armstrong burst down the flank and left two defenders for dead before delivering a cross to pick out Danny Ings who emphatically volleyed home.

Wolves were handed a lifeline early in the second half when Nelson Semedo's cross hit Ryan Bertrand's arm and Ruben Neves made no mistake in beating Alex McCarthy from the penalty spot.
