Ibrahim Cissoko scored twice as Plymouth Argyle beat a spirited Luton Town 3-1 in a tense Championship encounter at Home Park.
The Hatters piled on the pressure as the game drew to a close, but they could not find an equaliser before Cissoko scored a third in stoppage time as manager Wayne Rooney guided the Pilgrims to back-to-back home victories for the first time this season.Luton came into the game after back-to-back league wins for the first time since last December, when they beat Newcastle and Sheffield United in successive Premier League games.
Luton began to assert themselves as the half wore on – Tahith Chong had a close-range strike from a tough angle blocked while Adebayo headed a free kick over the bar as the Hatters got some joy from longer balls over the Plymouth defensive line. The former Chelsea and Liverpool man controlled Alfie Doughty’s cross from the left and blasted a low left-footed effort past Daniel Grimshaw for his first goal since joining as a free agent after leaving Spartak Moscow in the summer.
Plymouth have lost just one of their last six league games at Home Park , while since the start of last season 79% of their league wins have come at home , the most of any Championship side to feature in both the 2023-24 and 2024-25 seasons.
