Southampton 2-0 West Brom: Oriol Romeu scores stunning second half volley after Moussa Djenepo's opener to give Saints convincing victory as Baggies slump to third defeat

Goals from Moussa Djenepo and Orio Romeu gave Southampton a 2-0 victory over West Brom.

The Saints dominated much of the possession in the first half and Djenepo finally opened the scoring just before the break. A loose ball fell to the winger just outside the box and he fired a low shot through a crowd of bodies with Sam Johnstone unsighted.

Southampton doubled their lead in the second half when Oriol Romeu hit a stunning volley to grab his first goal since February 2019. Romeu at the far post and the midfielder hit it first time to leave Johnstone with no chance.
