Ghana international Mohammed Salisu was in action for Southampton in their 2-1 win over League One Lincoln City in the Carabao Cup fourth round on Tuesday.

Salisu lasted for 63 minutes before he was replaced by Stuart Armstrong as the Saints came from behind to avoid a shock exit at the Saint Mary's Stadium.



The win gives Nathan Jones his first win as Southampton boss, after losing his only previous match in charge at Liverpool on 12 November.



The Premier League fell behind early when Gavin Bazunu failed to deal with Ainsley Maitland-Niles' sliced clearance.




But Adams scored either side of the break to see Southampton through.



The two goals represent the first time Southampton have scored more than one in a game since their win over Chelsea on 30 August.



It is the first time they have reached the quarter-finals of the competition since they lost to Manchester United in the 2017 final.



Salisu, who represented Ghana at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar has made 16 appearances for Southampton across all competitions this season.
