90+2 mins: Echoes of his father! As the ball sprung loose inside the Leicester penalty area and Depay lurking, Kasper Schmeichel burst off his line to clear with his feet, not once but twice.

90 mins:: Into four minutes of injury time, Saints playing out time here.

Full-time: SOUTHAMPTON 4 MANCHESTER CITY 2:No Sergio Aguero, no Kevin De Bruyne, no Vincent Kompany, but that's still an awful day out on the south coast for City. Not ideal preparation for their trip to Real Madrid in three days time. A great afternoon's work for Southampton, mind, which moves them to within a win of fifth place - five wins in eight games now - and leaves City trailing Arsenal in the race for third.
