The clean sheet against the in-form Saints also delighted the Rover's boss.

"This is a big win for us and the reward for a very gritty performance," Souness said after the match.

"Craig Short and Henning Berg were outstanding and to keep a clean sheet after the way we have been conceding goals is very encouraging.

"We have looked a little jaded recently but now we have a couple of weeks rest and that should help a lot."
