Southampton stride into FA Cup quarter-finals at expense of Wolves Southampton progressed to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup by beating Wolves in a 2-0 win courtesy of goals from Danny Ings and Stuart Armstrong. Ings put them ahead in the 49th minute, albeit with a hint of fortune, as his shot hit the keeper, deflected back onto him and into the net. The lead was doubled in the final minute of normal time, as Armstrong made it 2-0 after capitalising on some mistakes at the back from Wolves. The visitors deserved their victory as Nuno Espirito Santo’s selection gamble for the hosts backfired. Nuno made six changes – including giving captain Conor Coady a rare rest – in a surprise selection considering the FA Cup remained Wolves’ best chance of success – and a return to Europe – this year. They continued to stutter though, having won just four times since November, and will seek instant revenge in the Premier League at St Mary’s on Sunday. While Ralph Hasenhuttl made five he was still able to recall Kyle Walker-Peters and hand Mohammed Salisu his debut after an £10.9million summer move from Real Valladolid.
