Southampton boss Pochettino happy for Gallagher over first Premier League goal

Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino was happy seeing Sam Gallagher score his first goal in the Premier League during victory over Norwich City.

Gallagher struck during injury time in the 4-2 win.

"We all know what Sam has been going through," Pochettino said, referring to the recent passing of the striker's father.

"He has been going through a really tough time. It doesn't change his situation, but it will go a long way to making him happy and his surroundings and his family - everyone around him that wishes the best for him. It will be a good thing for him."
