Plymouth Argyle 4 Lincoln City 3
From the BBC Sport website:
Recalled skipper Joe Edwards smashed a stoppage-time winner as Plymouth beat promotion-chasing Lincoln 4-3 in an action-packed encounter.
Argyle got off to a flying start against their second-placed opponenets, with defender Kell Watts turning in Conor Grant's cross from the right after just three minutes.
Playmaker Danny Mayor doubled the home side's lead 10 minutes later, latching on to a Tyrese Fornah pass before making space for himself and unleashing a low shot past former Argyle loan goalkeeper Alex Palmer from the edge of the area.
City hauled themselves back into the match when Conor McGrandles scored a similarly well-taken goal, making space for himself on the right side of the area before unleashing a low drive into the corner past keeper Michael Cooper.
And the game turned on its head in four second-half minutes as Jorge Grant converted twice from the penalty spot.
He levelled after Watts fouled Brennan Johnson in the 59th minute and then made it 3-2 after being felled himself by Mayor.
Plymouth's Conor Grant made it 3-3 in the 77th minute with a measured strike to beat Palmer from just inside the area before Edwards struck the decisive blow at the death.
