Southampton are into the FA Cup quarter-finals after a late Ross Stewart penalty secured a 1–0 win at Fulham, extending Saints’ unbeaten run to 10 matches in all competitions.

It was a game of missed opportunities at Craven Cottage. Saints created chances through Scienza, Larin and Azaz, while Fulham also struggled to convert promising moments in a match that rarely found its rhythm. The decisive moment finally arrived in stoppage time when Fin Azaz was brought down in the box and Ross Stewart calmly converted from the spot.

The result not only sends Saints into the last eight of the FA Cup but continues the remarkable turnaround under Tonda Eckert. When he arrived, the club sat 21st in the Championship — now Saints are pushing for the play-offs while also making progress in the cup.

We break down the key moments from the Fulham game, including the controversial disallowed goal, the missed chances at both ends and the impact of Fulham making nine changes to their side. We also discuss confidence within the squad, the importance of extending the unbeaten run and who stood out in our Player of the Week discussion.

The focus then turns quickly back to the league as Saints travel to West Brom on Wednesday night, with the Championship schedule beginning to intensify. With West Brom currently on a long winless run, Saints will be hoping to continue their momentum and keep climbing the table.
