Danny Ings at the double as Saints sting struggling Hornets

Southampton striker takes his goal tally to 21 for the season in 3-1 win at Vicarage Road.

Danny Ings struck twice as Southampton rebounded from their lacklustre performance against Arsenal with a comfortable 3-1 win at struggling Watford.

Saints had lost their last match 2-0 at home to Arsenal on Thursday, but manager Ralph Hasenhuttl said before the trip to Watford he expected a response, and his team reciprocated.
