BARNSLEY boss Conor Hourihane admitted he read the riot act to his players at halftime, which brought about a second-half revival and a 1-1 draw at Wigan.

The Latics had only a solitary Dara Costelloe goal on six minutes to show for almost 45 minutes of dominance.

And the Tykes took full advantage by dominating the second period and deservedly levelling through Adam Phillips with 21 minutes to go.

“We were absolutely awful in the first half and I went ballistic at halftime,” said Hourihane.
