Ronald Koeman was full of praise for his players after Southampton thrashed Manchester City 4-2 at St Marys on Sunday.Sadio Mane scored a hat-trick as the Saints netted four for the second Premier League game in a row, and Koeman was delighted with the performance of his side.Its very good to win against teams like City, Koeman told Sky Sports. You have to be at your best and the first 45 minutes was already more than our best. We played great football, created a lot of chances and scored two fantastic goals. Sadio Mane kisses the match-ball after scoring a hat-trick in Southamptons 4-2 win We were unlucky a little bit to be 2-1 at half-time, but in the second half we did everything you need to win against teams like City.I like a team who played from the start to win the game, and if we show that, Im enjoying football like today.Koeman was also full of praise for his attacking trio of Mane, Shane Long and Dusan Tadic, who caused City all kinds of problems at St Marys. Long scored the first before Manes hat-trick, while Tadic provided three assists for his team-mates. Jose Fonte felt Southamptons third goal made all the difference as Man City had made a strong start to the second half We have a lot of competition in our forwards and I think the three players up front did an amazing job today, said Koeman. Sadio, Shane Long and Dusan Tadic... I think it was the key to make it very difficult for Citys defenders. Dusan is a type of player where if he gets some freedom, hes dangerous. He sees the options to give at the right moments, thats one of his big qualities.The result leaves Southampton in seventh place in the Premier League, and Koeman is hoping his side can go on to secure Europa League qualification. Its a very important win because it means were still fighting for Europe, said the Dutchman. Weve passed Liverpool and thats good.We know we need maybe two more wins, but I think weve shown in the last few months some great football and spirit, and if we show the belief we showed today, then maybe its possible.Its all about the final part of the season. Last year was fantastic - we had 60 points, now we have 57. Maybe we can do better than last season, and that will be incredible.Also See:Southampton 4-2 Man CitySouthampton fixturesAs it happenedGet a £10 free bet!Jay Novacek Youth Jersey .

Anthony Calvillo, through 20 CFL seasons, was frequently invincible and largely stoic in the heat of competition. But underneath the professional exterior he was, and is, compellingly human.SILVERSTONE, Great Britain -- Lewis Hamilton set the fastest time during second practice for the British Grand Prix as Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg had to sit out of the session with a car problem.Hamilton led the two Red Bulls comfortably as Mercedes dominance looks set to continue over another weekend. Rosberg will be playing catch up, however, after losing out on crucial preparation time with a water leak, which meant he failed to turn a wheel throughout the 90-minute session.After 30 minutes of work on the car, Mercedes attempted to send Rosberg out but the run was aborted before the car left the garage. As a result, Rosberg will have to rely on Hamiltons long-run data, which included a 15 lap stint on the softs and a 13 lap stint on the mediums.Although Hamilton was 0.391s quicker than his nearest competitor, his soft tyre lap was 0.006s slower than the time he set on the medium in the first session. That suggests Mercedes will be able to extend its advantage even ffurther given a problem-free run.ddddddddddddSebastian Vettel was 0.910s off Hamiltons fastest time using the same compound, while his Ferrari teammate Kimi Raikkonen was a full second slower than the Mercedes. Fernando Alonso set a respectable time in the McLaren Honda to go sixth fastest while teammate Jenson Button was limited to just 15 laps after a problem midway through the session.Romain Grosjean was eighth fastest in the Haas, just one place behind Valtteri Bottas Williams and ahead of Button and Felipe Massa. Both Force Indias ended up outside the top ten as they focused solely on the medium and hard compound tyres over long runs.After scoring his first point in Austria last weekend, Pascal Wehrlein again showed promising pace with the 19th fastest time ahead of Jolyon Palmer, Marcus Ericsson, Kevin Magnussen and teammate Rio Haryanto.
