Barnet 0-2 Grimsby: Mark McGhee loses first home game
Saturday 25 November 2017 20:12, UK
Goals from Jamille Matt and Sam Jones in each half meant that Mark McGhee's first home game in charge of Barnet ended in a loss to Grimsby.
The former Aberdeen manager freshened up his team by handing league debuts to teenagers Benjy Aghadiuno and Dwight Pascal with the latter receiving a straight red card for a strong sliding challenge in the 54th minute.
The Bees started brightly but it was the visitors who took the lead in the sixth minute when Matt headed in from Luke Summerfield's corner.
Shortly after the goal, Jamie Stephens made a fingertip save to stop Sam Jones' header.
In the 54th minute, Pascal's debut was cut short as he received his marching orders by referee Gavin Ward for a tackle on Siriki Dembele.
