the 84th minute. He came so close to a hat-trick
Sure enough, 14 minutes after Maddison’s effort, substitute
Che Adams levelled for Saints and then delivered a spectacular winner in the
84th minute. He came so close to a hat-trick, too, hitting the post in stoppage
time.
Since falling 2-0 down at home to Leeds last weekend, Saints

past Danny Ward, only to be denied by a late offside flag.
At the other end, James Maddison’s inswinging free-kick was
punched clear by Gavin Bazunu, who was then relieved to see Barnes shoot wide
after the winger had been gifted possession by Romeo Lavia.
