Southampton Win To Move Third

[Folami David]

Southampton climbed to third in the Premier League table with a comprehensive victory over Fulham.
.
Saints dominated from the start and took the lead when Jay Rodriguez flicked on a James Ward-Prowse corner for Rickie Lambert to head home.
.
More chances followed and Lambert hit the post from 25 yards before setting up Rodriguez to make it 2-0, turning an Adam Lallana cross into his path.
.
Fulham's only shot saw Steve Sidwell flash a volley wide late on.
.
Southampton's high-tempo pressing game hardly allowed the visitors so much as a sniff in front of goal as Mauricio Pochettino's side secured their sixth clean sheet in nine games.
.
Sadly for Cottagers' manager Martin Jol, his players were far more charitable - particularly for Lambert's opener, after 20 minutes.
.
That came after Fulham midfielder Scott Parker told Dimitar Berbatov to mark the England striker from James Ward-Prowse's corner, only for the Bulgarian to stand and watch the ball fly over his head for Lambert to nod in unopposed at the far post.
.
Southampton, who were constantly sending their full-backs Nathaniel Clyne and Luke Shaw on raids up either flank, had already gone close when Morgan Schneiderlin's shot was cleared off the line after Sascha Riether was caught in possession.
