Substitute Ethon Archer scored his third goal in four games to earn Cheltenham Town an invaluable 2-1 win at fellow League Two strugglers Barrow. The Luton loanee had been on the pitch only nine minutes when he accepted Isaac Hutchinson's pass to rifle a low right-foot shot beyond Wyll Stanway.
Until Archer's late intervention, Neil McDonald looked set to protect his unbeaten record as Barrow's interim manager. Instead, it was the visitors who left with all three points from a contest the hosts felt they had done enough to take something from.
Barrow Lay Siege Without Reward
In the first home game since Andy Whing's dismissal earlier in the month, Barrow dominated the opening period. They won 10 corners without reply and forced Cheltenham keeper Joe Day into saves from Whitfield and Josh Gordon.
