Substitute Isaac Fletcher earned relegation-threatened Barrow a remarkable 3-2 win over League Two play-off chasing Oldham at the SO Legal Stadium.
Fletcher converted Elliot Newby's cross in the first minute of stoppage time after Latics skipper Tom Pett appeared to have rescued a point for the in-form visitors.
Barrow stay in the relegation zone, a point from Newport in 22nd, although their position could have been even worse but for an amazing conclusion.
