At St. Mary's Stadium, Southampton stunned Chelsea by coming from behind to win their second Premier League game of the year. Thomas Tuchel's team lost 2-1. Raheem Sterling, the Blues' leading scorer, gave Thomas Tuchel's team a bright start in the 23rd minute with his third goal in two games. After Chelsea botched the right clearance of a corner, another former Manchester City player, Romeo Lavia, equalised with a brilliant shot that went past Edouard Mendy. As a result, Southampton outplayed their opponents from that point on and scored the game's decisive goal just before halftime when Romain Perraud found Adam Armstrong, who had his shot ricochet off Kalidou Koulibaly and into the goal.
As a result of the well-deserved win, Ralph Hasenhuttl's team moves up to the seventh place, tied with Chelsea on points but ahead of them on goals scored.
