Bristol Rovers 0-4 Southampton

Striker Rickie Lambert came back to haunt former club Bristol Rovers as Southampton cruised to victory.

Lambert converted a second-half penalty after Danny Coles had fouled Lee Barnard in the box.

Jose Fonte had opened the scoring with a first half volley and Adam Lallana made it two from close range when he diverted Dean Hammonds' miscued shot.

Barnard completed the rout in second-half injury time as he smashed his shot in off the crossbar.

Southampton manager Alan Pardew told BBC Radio Solent:
"Now we've got the win under our belts hopefully we can get a home win which will be very important for us.

"If you want to get promoted you need to score a number of set play goals and we concentrated on them so it was very pleasing to get that goal.

"It's not all rosy, we're going to have to see how Adam (Lallana) is - it doesn't bode well when a player has to come off at halftime."
