Fulham boss Marco Silva was delighted after their 2-0 win at Southampton.

Carlos Vinicius and Aleksandar Mitrovic struck to confirm Southampton's relegation.

Silva said: "I want to congratulate the players and the fans. It was great support and the players did well coming away from home with the three points and the clean sheet.

"It was a warm day, it was difficult and from the first minute we were the best team on the pitch. We controlled the game until the last minute. We had one or two good chances to score before the 1-0 and then we scored the second.

"We knew before the match, they [Southampton] were in a difficult situation and it was the last chance for them to keep believing with the supporters behind them but we took the ball from them in the first minute. We played in our style and we have all of the sympathy with them. It's a really difficult moment for Southampton. They are a big club and they will come stronger next season.

"It shows the quality of our work, the players are always open to learn and improve every single day. It is a good dressing room and we always want to play with our style and philosophy and we have shown our quality, we are not finished yet and we want more."
