New Southampton head coach Will Still praised his side's "grit and determination" in their dramatic win over Wrexham.

Trailing the Championship newcomers heading into the 90th minute, Ryan Manning's free-kick and captain Jack Stephens' 96th minute goal turned the match in their favour.

So instead of beginning with a dispiriting defeat, the Saints began with a euphoric victory.

"Welcome to the Championship! It's just crazy, isn't it?," said Still.

"We were probably a bit frustrated with the way we conceded the first goal. We don't need to lose the ball in that part of the pitch, but those are the things that we can work on.
