Three minutes after seeing his ambitious 30-yard lob tipped over the bar by Harry Tyrer, Barnsley midfielder Keillor-Dunn gave his side the lead when he jinked inside the box before whipping a shot into the bottom corner.

First-half chances for Lee Evans and Albie Morgan could not be converted for Blackpool but they did equalize on 68 minutes when Evans’ free-kick was flicked on by Casey to pull the Seasiders level.

The lively Evans saw a free kick fly just over the bar on 88 minutes as Blackpool pushed for a winner, but victory was to go the way of Barnsley after Roberts headed home his third goal of the season from a corner.
