Henry apologises to fans
Barnsley set-piece but weren’t quite able to find the final pass for Koroma up top.
Barnsley turned the tables on the Terriers to get up the left through Morris again, and the forward’s cross was deflected up into Daryl Dike’s path.
Neither Juninho Bacuna nor Sarr were quick enough to recognise the threat, allowing Dike to get up with a spectacular overhead kick and find the net.
Barnsley were unlucky not to double their lead, with Sarr twice clearing off the line from headed efforts that Schofield failed to claim and Michal Helik

The keeper atoned for that by making a great block to stop Barnsley exploiting a poor Hogg backpass late on.
Carel Eiting made his return from injury from the bench and was able to offer some muchneeded incision to the Terriers attack while Sorba Thomas and Rolando Aarons brought fresh impetus to the wings.
But they had left it too late and were unable to create any meaningful chances for themselves.
LIVERPOOL’S principal owner John W Henry has taken full responsibility for ‘disruption’ caused by the Reds’ involvement in the proposed European Super League and has apologised to the club’s fans for letting them down.
Henry addressed supporters in a video message posted by the club on Twitter on Wednesday morning, after the Merseyside outfit and the other ‘big six’ Premier League sides announced on Tuesday night they have withdrawn from the hugely controversial project.
“I want to apologise to all the fans and supporters of Liverpool Football
Club for the disruption I caused over the last 48 hours,” he said.
“It goes without saying but should be said, the project put forward was never going to stand without the support of the fans.
“No-one ever thought differently in England. Over these 48 hours you were very clear that it would not stand. We heard you. I heard you.”
Henry spoke of the ‘hurt’ being felt and also apologised to manager Jurgen Klopp, his staff and players ‘and to everyone who works so hard at LFC to make our fans proud’.
He added: “They have absolutely no responsibility for this disruption.”
