Maya Yoshida and James Ward-Prowse spared Shane Long's blushes as Southampton hit two goals in as many minutes to sink Crystal Palace 3-1 at St Mary's.

Republic of Ireland striker Long spurned a trio of gilt-edged chances and Saints were almost made to pay for that wastefulness, until Yoshida came to the rescue.

The Japan defender's tap-in seven minutes from time turned this Premier League match, after Christian Benteke and Nathan Redmond had traded first-half goals.

Saints laboured without injured arch finisher Manolo Gabbiadini, with Long unable to match the Italian's predatory instincts.

Palace so nearly took their unbeaten run to five matches, but somehow Saints salvaged victory - with Yoshida claiming his first league goal since February 2016.
