Liverpool needed to win the game at Anfield to further cement their chances of finishing in the Premier League top four but were held to a goalless draw.
Southampton didn't have much to play for going into the game but frustrated Jurgen Klopp's side.
They did have the perfect opportunity to take the lead but James Milner's penalty was well saved by Fraser Forster in the second half.

And Souness was bored by the showing from his old side in the first 45 minutes.
"The crowd have got nothing to be excited about," he said on Sky Sports.
"It's dull. You'd expect at this stage where they are they'd be bang at it.
