Barnsley 0-1 Blackpool: Jordan Rhodes penalty helps Seasiders on their way to first league away win of the season
A first half penalty from Jordan Rhodes was all that separated the two teams at Oakwell.
The Seasiders were tested defensively throughout, but remained firm at the back to claim the three points.
Callum Connolly produced a crucial block in the early stages, to stop an effort from Davante Cole from hitting the target.
Despite creating very little in attack during the first half, it was Blackpool who opened the scoring in the 24th
minute.
After some good work down the left side, CJ Hamilton was tripped in the box- winning Neil Critchley’s side a penalty for a second consecutive week.
Rhodes stepped up, and sent Liam Roberts the wrong way for his fifth goal of the season.
