MANCHESTER, England, April 6 (AP): Southampton became the first team to be relegated from the Premier League this season after a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham on Sunday. With just 10 points from 31 games, last-placed Southampton cannot finish above Wolverhampton Wanderers in 17th.Top of the table Liverpool lost 3-2 at Fulham, but remains 11 points clear of second-placed Arsenal, which drew 1-1 with Everton on Saturday.

Southampton's relegation is the fourth earliest in the Premier League era. Derby's drop on March 29, 2008, is still the earliest relegation since the league began in 1992. Huddersfield and Fulham suffered earlier relegations than Southampton, which is now joint with Leicester in 2002.
