Lewis Shipley strikes late to give Barrow the spoils against Notts County

Lewis Shipley strikes late to give Barrow the spoils against Notts County

Rhyl Journal2 days ago
Defender Shipley slid in his first goal for the club eight minutes after ex-Carlisle striker Dennis levelled for the unlucky visitors.
Former Nottingham Forest striker Tyler Walker had netted the Cumbrians' first goal of the season after 32 minutes, his own first goal in the Football League since March 2023.
County dominated possession in the second half but suffered a blow when substitute Matty Platt suffered a late game-ending injury.
And having used their three substitute windows, County were unable to bring on their final replacement.
However, Dennis, who scored for Carlisle against Barrow, appeared to have rescued a deserved point, heading home Nick Tsaroulla's cross.
Instead, Barrow, who have not lost a Football League game against the Magpies since 1970, poured forward and Shipley prodded in a memorable winner.

Micah Richards tells Arsenal to sign £80m star after Manchester United win

Micah Richards has named the signing Arsenal should make to 'solve a lot of problems' after their opening Premier League victory over Manchester United. Mikel Arteta's side, who are expected to challenge for the title yet again after three successive second-place finishes, began the 2025-26 campaign with a 1-0 victory at Old Trafford. The Gunners were far from at their fluent best but were gifted an early goal following a mistake from United back-up goalkeeper Altay Bayindir and then withstood significant pressure from the hosts to return to north London with the three points. Ex-England defender Richards described it as a 'massive win' for Arsenal and said the team's strength in depth was impressive after Arteta used Myles Lewis-Kelly and Jurrien Timber as second-half substitutes. The only real weakness Richards saw in Arsenal was at left-wing, where Gabriel Martinelli started before being replaced by ex-Chelsea star Noni Madueke, who prefers to operate off the right. Metro's new weekly football newsletter: In The Mixer. Exclusive analysis, FPL tips and transfer talk sent straight to your inbox every Friday – sign up, it's an open goal. Richards believes Arsenal would benefit from the addition of another left-winger before the transfer deadline and says signing Real Madrid's Rodrigo would 'solve a lot of problems'. Arteta expressed interest in signing Rodrygo earlier in the summer but the Gunners are not currently pursuing the Brazilian, who is valued at around £80m. Arsenal were interested in Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze, who could have played on the left, but it is their north London rivals Tottenham who are closing in on £68m deal. 'I still think Arsenal are a left winger short or a left forward short,' former Manchester City defender Richards said on The Rest is Football podcast. 'But Arsenal's bench today was so strong with Lewis-Skelly and Timber coming on. Mikel Arteta can change the full-backs now and it doesn't affect the team, the quality doesn't go down. 'That will really help them throughout the season. I prefer Noni Madueke on the right so I just look at that position on the left-hand side and if they could sort that. 'They were linked with Rodrygo and that could solve a lot of problems for them. 'But it's a massive win for Arsenal away from home and just gives them that momentum at the start of the season.' While Arsenal were not at their best at Old Trafford, Arteta was full of praise for the 'resilience' his team showed to beat an improved Manchester United. More Trending 'We came here away and won which is a big result. We were clearly not at our best,' the Gunners boss told BBC's Match of the Day. 'We attacked the box and we reacted well to unusual mistakes. The team reacted time after time in an incredible way. Very proud of that because that is why we got the opportunity to win the game. 'We showed a resilience and a will to win. They put you on the ropes here, you will have to have moments when you suffer. To find a way to win at this ground, I'm very happy with the team.' Arsenal will look to make it two wins from two next Saturday when Premier League new-boys Leeds United visit the Emirates Stadium. For more stories like this, check our sport page.

Nottingham Forest coach needs stitches in head after injury celebrating Chris Wood goal

Nottingham Forest's goalkeeper coach was overly enthusiastic celebrating his side's opening goal on Sunday and smashed his head on the dugout, requiring stitches Nottingham Forest's goalkeeper coach needed medical attention after being too enthusiastic with his celebration, resulting in him smacking his head and requiring stitches. ‌ Nuno Espirito Santo 's side began the season in ideal fashion on Sunday as they saw off Brentford at the City Ground. Last season's top scorer Chris Wood kept up his scoring habit and needed just five minutes to find the opener. ‌ But coach Rui Barbosa was clearly very excitable and smacked his head on the top of the dugout as he celebrated. It resulted in him needing six stitches to patch up the injury with Nuno admitting he later felt dizzy. ‌ He said: "He has six stitches! It was a nasty one. A bad one. He was dizzy." Forest were 3-0 up by half-time, all but wrapping up the game as they begun the year in impressive fashion. Wood grabbed another in first-half stoppage time with Dan Ndoye also getting in on the act as they look to prove that last year's success was not a one off. Nuno said: 'I am delighted. The way we started the game was amazing. We played good, we dominated, we controlled … the goal in the first five minutes settled the team and the energy of the stadium. With the exception of a moment before the third goal, we did not allow Brentford too many things.' Another massive plus for Forest was the confirmation of two new signings, who were showcased to the City Ground before kick-off. Omari Hutchinson joins from Ipswich Town after the club saw several offers rejected, before eventually striking a deal for the winger. Manchester City playmaker James McAtee has also joined but both men were signed too late to play in Sunday's opening game. Forest will play in Europe this year, taking a place in the Europa League after Crystal Palace's demise, and Nuno had wanted to land more new faces. Ndoye was one of those and the Nottingham boss was full of praise for how he performed on his debut. He said: 'Today we couldn't have asked for anymore, the City Ground was loud and bouncing, it was a beautiful day for us. Dan (Ndoye) played well today, he stuck to his defensive tasks which is always important, but he is so talented and honestly, I think he has much more to give.'
