Ratings: How Barnsley FC and Hull City played fared at Oakwell


Barnsley
Collins: Ever consistent and made a big save on the restart to deny Docherty. No chance with either goal. Deserved better from those in front of him. 7
Moon: Struggled against the impressive Keane Lewis-Potter. 4
Helik: A difficult afternoon for the big defender. 5
Kitching: Given problems by Hull's attacking players. 5

Hide AdBrittain: Went close with a first-half piledriver and had Barnsley's best second-half chance. Some poor decisions elsewhere. 5
Gomes: Could not stamp his authority on the game and did not take care of Honeyman either. Very poor off the ball. 4
Benson: Has a decent range of passing, but without the ball, but him and Gomes were meek in their defensive work. 4
J Williams: Lively enough start, but it was not sustained. Had issues along with several others. Replaced early in second half. 5
