Lambert happy to get on Southampton scoresheet beating Norwich

Southampton striker Ricki Lambert was pleased to score in victory over Norwich City.

Lambert started from the bench against Norwich but made an impressive impact when brought on early in the second half for Adam Lallana.

A minute after his introduction, the forward added to Morgan Schneiderlin's early strike and then showed impressive composure to provide the assist for Jay Rodriguez in front of on-watching England manager Roy Hodgson.

"I am always pleased to score a goal," he said. "I was determined to get on and do well for Southampton first and foremost and help the team get the points.

"Of course, I am still hoping to get to Brazil. It is my dream and everyone's dream so that is obviously at the back of my mind while I am trying to do well for Southampton as well."
