Hayes grabs goal on Oakwell return

admin

Hayes, who played for the Tykes for two seasons before leaving in 2007, popped up at the back post to head home a loose ball and cancel out a Barnsley lead that had last just six minutes.

That advantage had been deservedly given to the hosts seven minutes after the break when Hugo Colace drove the ball home from inside the penalty area.

Neither side really excelled in a game of low quality, although Scunthorpe could have won it near the end when Garry Thompson shot just wide from the edge of the area.

However, it ended all-square and kept Barnsley’s good run going, extending their unbeaten stretch to five games.
