Ronald Koeman happy to stay in Euro race

Ronald Koeman was never known for his pace as a player and after making a touchline dash to celebrate his Southampton side’s late winner, has no intention of repeating the experience.

Koeman’s euphoria could be justified, however, and not just because he was celebrating his 53rd birthday 24 hours early.

Southampton had fought back from a desperate position, two down and apparently with little hope of recovery, to claim three points that could prove vital in their efforts to secure a return to the Europa League next season.
