​Pellegrino struggles for positives from Southampton shock loss to Wolves

Southampton manager Mauricio Pellegrino found it difficult to find positives from his side's shock loss to Wolves in Carabao Cup.

The Saints were the biggest casualty in the second round of the cup as they lost 2-0 to the Championship side at home.

"The best news for us is maybe we'll have more time to prepare better for Premier League games, and try to learn from (the loss)," said Pellegrino after the loss.

"It's a step backwards in our way, in our performance. The goals are accidents, Jack (Stephens) was really close to the player but he lost the challenge.

"And for the second goal everybody was in attack, one counter attack they were quicker than us. But we've got to try to learn from this situation."
