Match report
Barrow took all three points in a friendly against Morecambe on Saturday. The visitors secured a 1-0 win after Cranky struck in the eighty-fifth minute.
The match had been tight from the start. By then, the tension had lifted as the visitors took control. Cranky picked up the ball and punished them from a break.
Barrow managed the tempo well. They held 58 per cent of possession and registered nine corners. And here's the thing, Morecambe launched 61 attacks but lacked the bite to finish.
Morecambe were chasing momentum after a string of defeats. They had lost three of their last four matches before this encounter. Barrow looked sharper, building on their recent win against Blackpool.
The result gives Barrow something to take forward. Morecambe will need to address their defensive shape. To be fair, the away side made the most of their opportunities.
