Hello and welcome to our live text commentary from St. Mary's Stadium.

Don't forget you can watch highlights of this match, along with every Premier League game, from 00:01 on Monday morning (UK only).

FULL TIME! What a result!

Nice approach play from City as Lallana tries to prise open the visiting defence. No luck though.

The Southampton fans are bouncing up and down now - they are confident there won't be any late drama.

Milner swings in a cross from the left but it drifts out of play as City waste another opening.

Zabaleta gets in behind and wins a late corner...

Apparently we are going to have five added minutes.

Ward-Prowse with a fine challenge on Kolarov to half the City left-back, who looks incredibly frustrated with himself.

Boruc comes to punch away from a Maicon cross. He has had a decent game - in fact all the home players have.

City really have been so, so poor today. My post-match ratings are going to be fun.

Southampton fans are bringing out the 'oles' for every completed pass. Always a risky strategy of course.

More last-ditch defending from Southampton as Yoshida gets the ball away. They will have to be at their most alert in what remains of the game.

What a fantastic cross from Kolarov on the run, but Dzeko can't get a firm head to the delivery from the left and Southampton survive a scare.

A change for Southampton as James Ward-Prowse, the talented young midfielder, replaces Davis.

Stat from Infostrada: "City’s last 7 PL defeats have all been by a 1-goal margin. The last occasion they lost by more was in a 3-0 PL defeat at Liverpool in April 2011."

Kolarov breaks down the left and fires in a low cross, but a crowd of red shirts converge and help Boruc smother the ball.

Maicon comes on and he replaces Silva. A puzzling decision to say the least.

Jack Cork gets a sight of goal from 20 yards and balloons a shot high into the air and over.

Meanwhile, City are getting Maicon ready.

Fox has had to be removed due to a back injury and Frazer Richardson is on in his place.
