Ipswich Town 1-2 Southampton: Late Onuachu strike seals Juric's first Premier League win
Southampton ended a run of six straight Premier League defeats, while securing Ivan Juric's first win in the English top flight.
Paul Onuachu's late strike sealed Southampton's first Premier League win under Ivan Juric, as they edged out Ipswich Town 2-1 at Portman Road.
Onuachu netted the decisive goal three minutes from time in the battle of the division's bottom two sides.
Southampton broke the deadlock in the 21st minute when Mateus Fernandes' deflected cross fell kindly for Joe Aribo, with Arijanet Muric only able to help his volley into the net.
Ipswich responded just after the half-hour mark with Liam Delap darting in behind to beat Jan Bednarek to a loose ball, and calmly slot past Aaron Ramsdale.
It looked like the spoils would be shared. However, there was to be a late twist, with Onuachu pouncing on the rebound of Kamaldeen Sulemana's saved strike to snatch the visitors' first away league win of the campaign.
Juric's side remain bottom of the table but move seven points behind the hosts, who remain 19th after missing the chance to climb out of the relegation zone.
Data Debrief: Unlucky 13 no more for Saints
Southampton ended a run of 13 Premier League games without a win, and 20 on the road since they beat Chelsea in February 2023.
The Saints were 1-0 up for the fourth time in their last six league games, having scored first in just four of their opening 18 league matches this season.
Timed at 86 minutes at 38 seconds, Onuachu netted Southampton's last winning goal in a Premier League away game since Charlie Austin's decisive strike against Manchester United at Old Trafford in January 2016 (86 minutes, 40 seconds).
