Southampton footballers last night they beat Liverpool 1:0 and registered a big win this season in the Premier League.

How much this victory means to the "saints" was clear at the end of the match, when manager Ralf Hasenhitl fell to his knees with tears in his eyes.

"There were tears in my eyes - because of the wind! When you see our guys fighting and literally giving their all, then you really have to be proud. If you want to beat Liverpool, you have to play a perfect game and I think we succeeded in that," said Hasenhitl after the triumph.

Liverpool attacked throughout the second half, with no real chance to score.

"It felt like we were under a lot of pressure and defending around the penalty area was the key to success today. But throughout the match we tried to play football. We did everything the right way. The game was full of intensity. I lost my voice on the touchline. The boys are tired, but they succeeded because they believed in what they were doing. In the 92nd minute I thought, OK, this is a perfect night for us."
