Late drama as Barnsley and Charlton share the spoils

Late drama as Barnsley and Charlton share the spoils

Two late goals at Oakwell ensured the points were shared as Barnsley drew 2-2 with Charlton.

Davis Keillor-Dunn and Max Watters scored either side of a Luke Berry brace, with both sides scoring in second-half stoppage time.

Barnsley opened the scoring in the 34th minute when Stephen Humphrys’ effort was palmed into the path of Keillor-Dunn to slot home from close range.

The Tykes had the chance for a second in the 58th minute when Jon Russell volleyed goalwards from inside the box and hammered the Charlton crossbar.

Charlton equalised with 13 to play when Berry latched onto a loose ball on the edge of the box, firing beyond Gabriel Slonina into the left of the goal.

They thought found the winner in the third minute of injury time when Berry capitalised on an error from Slonina and fired home in front of the travelling fans.

But Darrell Clarke’s side responded well and found the leveller two minutes later when substitute Watters latched onto Marc Roberts’ flick on and struck beyond Will Mannion.
