Southampton extended their unbeaten Premier League run to five matches with an impressive 1-1 draw at title favourites Manchester City on Sunday.
But it speaks volumes for how far Saints have come during manager Claude Puel's short reign in charge they were disappointed not to leave the Etihad with all three points.
Nathan Redmond scored his third goal of the season after seizing on a mistake by error-prone England defender John Stones to give Southampton a half time lead.
A defensive lap early in the second half to allow Kelechi Iheanacho to smuggle an equaliser denied Puel what would have been a famous win over Pep Guardiola's side.
