Southampton: Manchester United failed to qualify for next season's Europa League after drawing with Southampton 1-1 on Sunday on the final day of the Premier League.

The less-than thrilling draw is likely to be Ryan Giggs' last match in charge of United as interim coach.

With Southampton guaranteed an eighth-place finish and United heading into the game with only the slightest possibility of European qualifying, this game had long lost any meaningful intrigue.

The hosts dominated the opening 45 minutes and Rickie Lambert put Southampton into a deserved first-half lead, with Juan Mata's free kick nine minutes after the interval enough to earn United a point.

A year after winning the title, United finished seventh, five points behind Tottenham - and 22 behind new champion Manchester City.
