Adam Lallana has said that it was a "proud moment" for him to score his first goal since moving to Liverpool.
The midfielder opened the scoring in the team's 2-1 win over West Bromwich Albion yesterday, helping Brendan Rodgers's side move up to sixth in the table.
The England international told the club's website: "It was a proud moment and a bit of relief, as it's always nice to get off the mark. But, more importantly, we got the three points and that is a step in the right direction.
"The win is massive for everyone involved in the club. It's no secret that we've had a tough few games, but we dug in, which we knew we had to.
"West Brom were resilient and coming off the back of two good results. Teams come here and make it difficult for us, but credit to the lads, the manager and the fans, they stayed with us. We got the win in the end, which was what it was all about."
Lallana had played for Southampton since joining their youth setup in 2000 prior to his move to the Anfield side.
