Plymouth Argyle 0-2 Peterborough United: Posh beat Pilgrims to reach round two

Last updated on .From the section League CupBBC Russian16

League One pacesetters Peterborough progressed in the Carabao Cup with a 2-0 win at divisional rivals Plymouth.

United took the lead after 28 minutes as Ricky-Jade Jones slotted home past Michael Cooper after being put in on the Argyle goal by Joel Randall's defence-splitting pass.

Posh ensured their second-round spot when Joe Taylor scored a stoppage-time second into an empty net after Argyle keeper Cooper had gone up for a corner.

Argyle looked to have levelled in the opening minute of the second half but Lucas Bergstrom made a superb save to keep out Niall Ennis' header from Jack Endacott's cross.

Substitute Finn Azaz also came close, exchanging passes with striker Ennis before sending a rising drive just over from the edge of the box.

Azaz was not too far off with an angled drive with 70 minutes gone but again fired just over.

Just before half-time, Taylor did well to break up a home attack and set off from inside his own half on a solo run.

Taylor finished with a 20-yard angled drive on the run which flew just wide past a full-stretch Cooper.

Both sides meet again at Home Park in League One on Saturday.

    If we’d taken our chances. Save it for Saturday Argyle. Be a different side then.

    Posh are going to score a lot of goals this season. Hopefully, they'll continue doing so on Saturday. Stevenage away in the next round - at least it's not far down the A1. Not an easy game against ex-Posh manager Steve Evans' side. A Prem side (Liverpool) at home in the next round, please.

    Saturday will be a different match and Posh will have Marriott and JCH on the pitch. It would be great if Posh keep rolling on!

    This is a fabulous start to the season for the POSH. Can we keep it going though. Too many times in the past POSH have started well but then drifted.....

    The Posh go marching on

    Onwards and upwards for Posh.

    Argyle fans, it's going to be a long season for you...

      How can you think that? We were excellent last season after he went. We conceded last minute goal v Fleetwood and a cup defeat.. admittedly poor 1st half hour but if we took our chances after that totally different. Peterborough are a good side and Barnsley will be up there end if the season and we won that one.

    Easy prediction - Posh still top of the league on Saturday night!

    Think Plymouth are missing Ryan Lowe big time.
