Barnsley manager was full of praise for Horsham as the part-timers earned a stunning 3-3 draw in the FA Cup first round at Oakwell.
Horsham manager Dominic Di Paola heaped praise on his team after they twice came from behind to draw 3-3 at Barnsley and force a replay in the Emirates FA Cup first round. Tom Richards scored the second equaliser to take the tie back to Woodside Road. After falling behind to a Max Watters goal, the visitors took a 2-1 lead through Shamir Fenelon and a James Hammond penalty.
“I thought we’d get out at 3-2 – we should have made it 4-2 – and then without being over-happy, we’d have taken the win and moved on. “A couple of mistakes and Horsham deserved the replay. There’s a chance for us to go and put it right.” Di Paola hailed a monumental effort by his Horsham side. “I thought the boys were absolutely phenomenal,” he said. It was just an incredible performance. “You could see at the end, I don’t think there was anyone without cramp.
