Franck Moussa's strike proved enough to give the Shrimpers victory at the Weston Homes Community Stadium.[LNB]They have also now gone three matches without scoring and their hopes of making this season's play-offs are slowly fading.[LNB]Lambert said: "Southend took their only chance and it was a good finish. But we were asleep for some strange reason and it wasn't offside.[LNB]"Pat Baldwin had a chance where he should have scored, Kem Izzet had an opportunity with a header and Mark Yeates had one saved by the keeper.[LNB]"We had a lot of the ball but Southend defended strongly and tried to hit us on the counter-attack which is their prerogative, but we were slow to react."[LNB][LNB]
