Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney has insisted that his side "deserved to win" this evening's match against Southampton.
The hosts failed to register a single shot on goal as they succumbed to their first league defeat against the Saints in 27 years, being edged out 1-0 at Old Trafford.
Dusan Tadic's strike 20 minutes from time secured a memorable victory for Southampton, who leapfrogged their opponents into third place in the Premier League table as a result.
Speaking after the game, Rooney told Sky Sports News: "That is football, that is how it goes. I think overall we had the better chances and played the better football and deserved to win but we were punished.
"I have seen Southampton play better, we stopped a lot of their threats but we got punished. We have to move on and focus on the next game."
United have a chance to bounce back when they take on lowly Queens Park Rangers next weekend.
