Barnsley 1 – 1 Stockport

Stockport came from behind late on to rescue a point in a 1-1 draw with Barnsley at Oakwell.

Adam Phillips scored from the spot early on before Louie Barry levelled in stoppage time.

The hosts were awarded a penalty after just four minutes when Davis Keillor-Dunn was brought down in the box by Tyler Onyango.

Phillips stepped up and converted into the bottom right for his fifth of the season.

County looked set to equalise in first-half stoppage time when Josh Earl gave the ball away and allowed Barry to race through on goal, but Gabriel Slonina rushed out and made himself big to deny him.

Earl could have doubled Barnsley’s lead with two minutes to go, but the defender’s low effort from the left of the box was saved well by Corey Addai.

Stockport levelled in the first minute of stoppage time when Barry smashed home from just inside the box after the home side failed to clear.

Stockport manager Dave Challinor:

“I had a little bit of a go at the players last week because I thought we lost a little bit of our identity and what we’ve become since I came to the club.

“I think the second half – that’s it for me. Front foot, wanting to press, wanting to get after the ball, wanting to play forward, wanting to play some good stuff as well alongside that.

“We deserved to get something from the game. Did we make mistakes? Yes, we made mistakes. Did we make bad decisions? Yes, we made bad decisions. Did our mistakes get punished? Probably more so than their mistakes.

“There was a good bit of composure from Jayden Fevrier to pick out Louie (Barry) for the goal.

“A great moment for everyone – for our players to celebrate with our supporters behind that goal. A deserved point but more importantly, us being back to us.”

Barnsley head coach Darrell Clarke:

“We didn’t get our cohesion and the attacking element of our game going as well as I’d like tonight.

“Stockport kept coming and putting more attacking players on, I thought we defended our box really well but it wasn’t to be.”
