Southampton were triumphant over Championship opposition as they beat Millwall 1-0 in their fifth friendly of pre-season on Saturday.
The win courtesy of a goal from Adam Armstrong saw Southampton win their fourth game of the summer, with the 2-0 defeat to Oxford United in midweek the only loss they have suffered.

Russell Martin will be much closer to knowing his starting XI than he was at the beginning of the summer, with the preparation for the Premier League ramping up since Southampton returned from their training camp in Spain.
The Saints appear to have come through the win over Millwall unscathed but were still without last season’s £10 million signing Ross Stewart as he continues to build his fitness after long-term injury.
There were two other notable absentees, with Sekou Mara and Kamaldeen Sulemana both missing after coming off injured against Oxford on Wednesday.
