    Soccer-Southampton continue tough start with loss to Forest

    SOUTHAMPTON, England (Reuters) – Newly-promoted Southampton’s difficult start to life back in the Premier League continued when they slipped to a 1-0 loss at home to Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

    Forest had by the far the best of the first-half action, with Chris Wood passing up two glorious chances to break the deadlock, an early close-range header the most gilt-edged miss.

    The hosts moved the ball better after the break but still lacked a cutting edge, with Forest finally making a chance count when Morgan Gibbs-White tucked the ball home at the second time of asking in the 70th minute.

    That killer blow sucked the life out of the home side, who never really threatened an equaliser, with Forest seeing out their first win of the season in relative comfort.
