Barnsley 0 Morecambe 2: Debutant Vaz Te fails to rescue Barnsley strugglers

Keith Hill`s first competitive game at Oakwell ended in disappointment as Carlton’s six-yard strike and a neat finish from Ellison on his Shrimps debut secured victory.

Ricardo Vaz Te was handed his first Barnsley start, and the former Bolton striker brought the first save of the night from Barry Roche with a 25-yard volley.

Jacob Butterfield forced a fine stop from Roche with a shot from distance before Morecambe hit back as Lewis Alessandra blazed over and Gary McDonald fired wide from 12 yards.

Vaz Te flashed a 25-yard effort wide, sent a header over the bar and brought a great save from Roche as the Tykes got back on top before the break.

But it was the League Two side who opened the scoring at the start of the second half.

A right-wing cross from Izak Reid was flicked on by Alessandra and Carlton converted from close range.

Barnsley’s response came from Danny Haynes, but his close-range header cleared the bar.

Both sides made changes, with Vaz Te leaving the action to be replaced by David Perkins.

Perkins blazed over just before the Shrimps doubled their lead. Carlton was the provider on this occasion, crossing for Ellison to drill the ball into the top corner from 12 yards.

Butterfield tried his luck from distance but Roche was equal to his effort and Perkins had the last chance of the game but fired wide from the edge of the box.

Lionel Ainsworth returned to haunt his first club as Shrewsbury inflicted a 3-2 Carling Cup upset Championship Derby.

Marvin Morgan struck twice in the first half for the League Two side and strike partner James Collins was on target in between, Ainsworth the provider on all three occasions.

Derby responded through Chris Maguire and Theo Robinson after the interval but Graham Turner’s side hung on.

Lawrie Sanchez showed he has not lost his giantkilling touch as his Barnet team sank npower Championship side Portsmouth 1-0. Mark Hughes hit the only goal in the first half.

Paul Jewell’s decision to field a second-string side backfired as Ipswich were dumped out in a 2-1 defeat to League Two Northampton.

Jay-Emmanuel Thomas gave the hosts an early lead, but goals either side of half-time from Ben Tozer and Paul Turnbull ensured Northampton went through to the second round.
