Leicester City

Leicester City goalkeeper Danny Ward, speaking to Sky Sports: "Hugely frustrating for us. We switched off for maybe 15 minutes in the first half and ultimately it's cost us. We've got to try to put this behind us and take some positives from the game.

"Maybe the penalty went against us which may sound strange to say. I felt we did more than enough to win the game rather than draw.

"Ultimately the penalty means nothing because they win 1-0. We've got to go again, put in some more hard work and try and convert those chances why they come to us."

On why things are how they currently are: "I don't know what we can put it down to. We've had a real lack of consistency in our games this year. Ultimately if you don't show that consistency and put the points on the board then you'll be at the wrong end. Thankfully we know we have the games there, the quality in the changing room and the characters available to get us out of this mess."

On if being three points away from relegation is a concern: "It's always a concern but we have to focus on the next game. Getting out of that situation is by winning games of football. More performances like that but taking our chances and I think we'll be OK."

James Ward-Prowse (106) passed Jason Dodd (105) as the player to record the most Premier League wins for Southampton.

He also broke Dodds' Premier League appearance record for the club today with 330.

Only four players have made more Premier League appearances for all clubs than Ward-Prowse since his debut in 2012.

Southampton

Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse to Sky Sports: "Huge result. It has been a tough couple of weeks with a few home truths. You saw a turning point in our season.

"I'd rather a free-kick [than a penalty], sometimes you score them, sometimes you don't. Fair play to the keeper, but three points is better than any goal you can score.

"Midweek [the FA Cup defeat by Grimsby] was never near the standard we should be producing. It is the sign of a good group that we can turn it around. We got let off the hook at times today."

Crystal Palace are 12th but only on 27 points from 25 games.

Aston Villa, in 11th, are the lowest team you'd say are definitely safe. They have 34 points.

It's a monumental win. Southampton worked incredibly hard all game. It wasn't pretty but they held on.

On another day Leicester would score two or three but they didn't and for Southampton it's about momentum. They need to build on this performance and they have hope.

This is Gavin Bazunu's third Premier League clean sheet of the season - and his second in the space of three games, having also denied Chelsea last month.

The 21-year-old Republic of Ireland keeper, who joined Southampton from Manchester City in the summer, is the youngest first choice keeper in the top flight.

He'll have tougher games than today mind, Leicester didn't even force him into a save.

This is such a huge win for Southampton but some of Leicester's players are slumped on the turf.

That's huge!

Harry Souttar should score but he is at full stretch.

What an opportunity.

It's all over.

Southampton are off the bottom of the Premier League table and Leicester are right back in big danger.

Right at the death, Leicester are an inch away from rescuing a point.

James Maddison lifts in a cross which Gavin Bazunu misses and Harry Souttar heads off the crossbar from eight yards out. An open goal too.

Danny Ward stays up but Southampton half-clear.

James Maddison's cross is headed over the bar by a defender for a corner. Last chance surely.

Danny Ward is up for this!

Good feet by James Maddison as he goes down the left. He tries to cut in and he's fouled by James Ward-Prowse.

Yellow card and free-kick in crossing range.

An offside goes against Leicester and Southampton are halfway through injury time unscathed.

Southampton need to keep hustling in these last moments. They've put a lot into this game but they need to keep going for the final minutes.

Gavin Bazunu takes his sweet, sweet time to clear this ball. Understandably.
