Morgan Whittaker's dramatic 97th-minute winner sealed a third straight home victory for Plymouth as Wayne Rooney's side beat Blackburn in the Championship.
Ryan Hedges intercepted the ball, creating a shooting opportunity for Makhtar Gueye, but the striker could not get enough power behind his effort.Andreas Weimann fired the ball at the same goal moments later, but he was denied by a smart reaction stop from keeper Daniel Grimshaw. Plymouth continued to show attacking intent in the second half, with Cissoko miskicking a first-time shot, before being denied from a tight angle by Blackburn keeper Aynsley Pears.
At that point, it looked like Plymouth would rue their missed chances, but Whittaker - who had controlled much of the game from midfield - had the final say when he flicked on Adam Randall's headed cross. Plymouth Argyle have won four of their last six home Championship matches , having gone seven without a win at Home Park beforehand .
