Leyton Orient scores multiple goals in the second half to secure a victory against Barnsley

Leyton Orient managed to score four goals in the second half within only 23 minutes after being behind at halftime, securing a 4-3 victory over Barnsley and climbing into the playoffs zone.

After Stephen Humphrys scored in the 11th and 19th minutes, giving the Tykes an advantage, it seemed like they were in control. However, the home team delivered an impressive performance in the second half, with Ethan Galbraith, Charlie Kelman, Sean Clare, and Omar Beckles all finding the back of the net to secure the win.

Galbraith narrowed the gap in the 51st minute following a pass from Jamie Donley, but Barnsley increased their lead to two goals again after 65 minutes when Davis Keillor-Dunn capitalized on a Keiren Flavell goal-kick.

Only three minutes later, Donley set up Kelman for his 20th goal in the league this season, intensifying Leyton Orient's comeback. Kelman then assisted Clare in the 71st minute, who calmly scored to equalize the match. The turnaround was completed three minutes later as defender Beckles put the ball into the net from a corner kick.
