Lambert Hat-Trick Seals Win Over 10-Man Seagulls

Rickie Lambert secured his third hat-trick for Southampton as they cruised to an impressive victory over ten-man Brighton. The match came to life in the second half as Lambert headed in at the far post from Frazer Richardson's cross just after half-time. Brighton defender, Mauricio Taricco was sent off after complaining to referee Peter Walton about the first of two penalties which changed the game. Lewis Dunk and Inigo Calderon comitted the fouls which Lambert both converted from the spot to secure the win.
