Van Dijk on target as Southampton overcome FC Twente

Southampton continued their pre-season tour of the Netherlands with a 2-1 win over FC Twente.

Saints skipper Virgil van Dijk put the South Coast club ahead in the game with a back-post volley from Dusan Tadic's cross in the first-half.

Sam Gallagher doubled the advantage for the Saints with 20 minutes left in the game.

Five minutes later, Peet Bijen managed to pull one back for the Dutch side, but that proved to be the last goal of the game.
The Saints have now claimed three wins from three in their pre-season.
