John McAtee's lob put Barnsley 3-0 up inside 30 minutes at Horsham

Seventh-tier Horsham's hopes of an FA Cup upset were dashed as League One Barnsley eased to victory in their FA Cup first-round replay.

The 100-place gap between the two sides was exposed as Nicky Cadden and John McAtee gave the Tykes a 2-0 lead inside the opening 10 minutes.

Having drawn the first tie 3-3 at Oakwell, Barnsley were taking no chances as McAtee's sublime lob made it 3-0 and killed off any hopes of an upset after less than 30 minutes.

Horsham improved markedly after the break as their top scorer Daniel Ajakaiye went close three times, but they could not find the net.

The win sees Barnsley secure a second-round tie away at League Two side Sutton United on Saturday, 2 December.
