• Armstrong saves Saints in wild 4-4 draw with Norwich
• Minority owner Brady watches Birmingham beat Leeds

Adam Armstrong’s 97th-minute penalty saved Russell Martin’s St Mary’s curtain-raiser as Southampton drew a topsy-turvy 4-4 encounter with Norwich.

Josh Sargent gave the Canaries an early lead before Saints hit back to claim the lead through Jan Bednarek and Armstrong’s first spot-kick. But Norwich restored their advantage by half-time thanks to Gabriel Sara’s impressive strike and Jon Rowe’s header.
