Lambert stunner wins it for Saints

30 March 2013 17:47

Rickie Lambert celebrated his new Southampton contract in some style on Saturday, smashing home an exquisite free-kick to secure a 2-1 win in a hard-fought encounter with Chelsea.

Saints had gone ahead through another in-form striker Jay Rodriguez, who collected a neat one-two from Steven Davis before slotting home in the 23rd minute.

John Terry was allowed to level unmarked from a corner 10 minutes later, only for Saints to hit back immediately through Lambert's fine strike.
