Mansfield Town ended a run of six winless games on Boxing Day with a comeback win over Barnsley at Oakwell.

The Stags were 2-0 down after just 13 minutes but rallied back thanks to goals from Louis Reed and Stephen McLaughlin before Aaron Lewis scored a late winner seven minutes from time.

Press Conferences

Steven Schumacher: "While it's still 1-0, the opposition are always going to have a spell or a little bit of encouragement and credit to Rotherham they put loads of good crosses in the box in the second half.

"The way that Max defended two of the crosses on the back post was excellent but the mistake that we made for the penalty gives them a lifeline.

"But the way we reacted was brilliant and to go down the other end and Amario to create one for Josh to get a second goal of the season was a brilliant way to win it. ’Keep going until the end’ - that's the mantra and we've showed that loads of times this season. 

"We're a fit group, we keep believing in what we're trying to do and we've got some quality. I wish we'd show the quality more often and make better decisions and better choices and better execution, but they never give up, so fair play."
