Barnsley continued their push for automatic promotion from League One with a 2-1 home victory against Shrewsbury. Alex Mowatt put the hosts ahead midway through the first half with a superb strike but Tyrese Campbell drew Shrewsbury level with a similarly memorable effort before the break. It was Barnsley who would take the lead though, with Mowatt providing the breakthrough in the 23rd minute. Campbell nearly doubled his tally just before half-time but, after Whalley's pass had sent him through, his shot was matched by Davies. Shrewsbury nearly found a late equaliser when substitute Fejiri Okenabirhie raced through but he saw his shot stopped by Davies as Barnsley held on for a vital win.
