It was a dream first start for the club for Archer, who spent last season on loan at Solihull Moors.
He was one of ten changes boss Dean Smith made from Saturday's win over Newcastle. Archer will hope his goals have put him in the reckoning to be included in the squad against Brentford at the weekend.

Barrow competed well at times but were playing catch-up from the tenth minute when El Ghazi got in behind and squared for Archer to slot in his first from six yards out.

Reaction

The Barrow manager said: "I'm frustrated because the scoreline didn't do ourselves justice. Yeah, we're playing against a good team but we've got to be better than that."

Aston Villa assistant Craig Shakespeare added:

"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."
Another good cup run for the Villains, they reached the final in 2020, would represent clear progress at the club. They haven't won a major trophy since winninv this same competition in 1996.
