Many would agree that football is a rollercoaster of emotions, and that has certainly rung true for Southampton over the last few weeks.
The coastal club have been embroiled in a relegation battle for the majority of the campaign, but they had a glimmer of hope less than two weeks ago when they overcame Bournemouth 2-1 at St Mary’s.
The result put the club one point adrift of safety with three games left to play, and on Saturday it looked as though they were going to climb out of the bottom three.
Just before the hour mark, Nathan Redmond nudged the coastal club ahead against Everton and they were on course to claim all three points when Maya Yoshida was sent off.

As the clock ticked down, Mark Hughes’s side tried to hold on, but it was not meant to be as Tom Davies struck an equaliser six minutes into injury time.
The result means that the Saints are now level on 33 points with Swansea City, who they face in midweek before taking on champions Manchester City on the final day of the season.
On Sunday, Pep Guardiola’s side were restricted to a goalless draw by Huddersfield, who in turn pulled three points away from the drop.
Southampton fans posted their thoughts on the result via Reddit.
