Brendan Rodgers’s side have now won their first nine matches of the season and have yet to concede a goal
Rodgers will now take his side to Germany to face Champions League runners-up Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday in top form. Saints lost captain Kyle Cameron to injury and replacement Aaron Essel took time to adjust. He was quickly beaten in the air by Trusty as the defender headed wide before Furuhashi finished impressively after the visitors got the break of the ball from the resulting goal kick and Nicolas Kuhn headed the striker clear.
Furuhashi fired just over 90 seconds into the second half but McGregor’s 25-yard drive caught out Sinclair in the 54th minute after the captain received the ball from Kuhn following a short corner.
