The decisive moment came from a defensive error, as Plymouth's forward intercepted a poor backpass and rounded the goalkeeper to slot into an empty net.

The home side also hit the woodwork twice, leaving them to rue their missed opportunities. This result was a major boost for Plymouth Argyle's automatic promotion hopes, moving them above their rivals, while Peterborough's title challenge suffered a setback.
