A brace from Ravel Morrison secured Derby County a 2-0 victory over Barnsley at Pride Park Stadium and was enough to lift them above their opponents into 22nd place in the Sky Bet Championship table.
The midfielder scored his first and his second league goals for the Rams on what turned out to be a comfortable afternoon on home soil to cut the gap to five points on Reading with ten games remaining.
And it was two clinical strikes from Morrison which secured all three points for Derby in a dominant display.
His first came midway through the first half as he lifted the ball over Barnsley goalkeeper Brad Collins to put Derby ahead, whilst two minutes into the second half, he doubled the Rams’ tally, confidently firing home from close range to earn the points.
