Epl: Southampton Become First Team To Be Relegated

Southampton have become the first team to be relegated from the Premier League this season.

This follows a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

To earn a stay of execution, they needed Wolves to either draw or lose to Ipswich and to avoid a defeat of their own against Spurs.

But Jorgen Strand Larsens late winner at Portman Road put one nail in the coffin on Saturday and a 3-1 loss in north London on Sunday confirmed a swift return to the Championship.

Their tally of 10 points so far is the joint-lowest after 30 games on record.
