Aston Villa gave themselves a confidence boosting 6-0 win over Barrow in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.
The Villains followed on from their first win of the Premier League season by advancing to the League Cup third-round with an emphatic win against the non-league side.
19-year-old Cameron Archer was the star of the nigh, scoring a hat-trick after breaking the deadlock after 10 minutes.
Ahmed El Ghazi contributed a brace, while Frederic Guilbert smashed in Villa's fifth goal of the night.
Speaking after the game, Villa boss Dean Smith said: "You want to get through to the next round but then you've got a young boy coming in and scores a hat-trick, always pleasing.
"I took great pleasure in watching the youth team last season, great pleasure in some of the youth players training him with us this season and staking a claim.
"But it wasn't an easy 6-0. We have to give Barrow a bit of credit.
"But (it was) pleasing for Cameron to get his hat-trick and obviously Anwar got a couple of goals as well.
"We've got a strong squad and everyone knows that we've got some good young players and to help their development it's important that they get chances like this."
