A 22-match streak of failures. Southampton secured their first victory in the EPL in 20 months

In the tenth round of the English Premier League, Southampton hosted Everton at home. The teams delivered a tense finish, and the match ended with a narrow 1-0 victory for the "Saints."

Adam Armstrong scored the only goal of the match in the 85th minute. A few minutes later, Betо equalized, but the goal was disallowed due to offside. As a result, the hosts secured their first victory of the current season and temporarily moved off the bottom of the table.

This success was truly historic for Russell Martin's side. They managed to break a streak of 22 matches without a win in the top division. The last time the "Saints" won in the Premier League was back in March 2023, when they defeated Leicester at home, but ultimately relegated at the end of the season.
