Barnsley boss Michael Duff has hailed his side as they set up a Carabao Cup second round tie at Leeds United after beating Middlesbrough.
Barnsley scored a last-gasp winner to come away 1-0 victors at the Riverside, and the Whites will host the League One outfit in the second round.
Leeds will welcome Barnsley to Elland Road on the week commencing August 22. Tykes boss Duff admitted that his side rode their luck in the win at Middlesbrough, and that it's something they'll need to do again when they face another club of a big 'stature' like Leeds.
"It was a team performance," Duff told the Yorkshire Post. "We've had to ride our luck at times but you don't come away to a club of this stature without having to do that.

"The thing we've been labouring a lot is togetherness, hard work, spirit and they can take you a long way in football. All those sorts of things gave us an opportunity to jump on a mistake at the end.
"There's a lot of players who've not had any minutes, people going down with cramp, all those sort of things, but they kept each other together and at it, and it buys you that moment.
"There's loads of things we can improve - we could pass the ball better and be a but cleaner with certain things but you've got to find a way to win a game of football and that's what we've done."
