Lovren seemed to connect with the ball first in the death throes of frantic contest just ahead of Phil Jones and Adam Lallana from substitute James Ward-Prowse’s corner to give the visiting side a point they were worth after a stout performance.
Manchester United seemed set to collect their second straight win the league courtesy of Robin van Persie’s expert finish on 26 minutes.
There was a slight hint of offside when Wayne Rooney bounded onto the impressive Adnan Januzaj’s pass.
Visiting goalkeeper Artuc Boruc raced from his line to make a fine stop, but the ball broke kindly for Van Persie to round the stranded Boruc before sliding a finish into the gaping net.
Southampton were the brighter side in the second half, and earned their reward in the death throes of a frantic afternoon.
