Plymouth playmaker Graham Carey netted an 89th-minute penalty winner as Argyle beat Shrewsbury Town 2-1 in League One.
The game at Home Park was poised to finish all square heading into the dying stages before Anthony Grant felled Argyle's Ruben Lameiras, allowing Carey to score his fifth goal of the season.
The home side had opened the scoring in the eighth minute, with leading scorer Freddie Ladapo taking his season's tally to 16 goals with a close-range strike, turning in David Fox's pacey cross from the left following a Lameiras corner.
Fox could have added a second in the 16th minute, only to see his 20-yard volley brilliantly saved low down at the foot of a post by Steve Arnold.
Lameiras later fired over from Antoni Sarcevic's 28th-minute cut-back, while Carey followed suit from Ladapo's cross on 35 minutes.
Shrewsbury then levelled on the hour, with former Argyle midfielder Olly Norburn scoring following a penalty he won, after being fouled by Carey.
Although goalkeeper Matt Macey saved Norburn's spot kick, the Shrews skipper followed up to level.
Argyle then pushed for a late winner, with Arnold full stretch to palm away a thumping 81st-minute angled strike from Ladapo before Carey's match-winning spot-kick.
