Promotion-chasing Plymouth Argyle suffered their second home League One defeat of the season, beaten 2-0 by mid-table Lincoln City at sold-out Home Park.Lincoln stunned their high-flying hosts on a lightning counter-attack on 28 minutes.
Imps keeper Carl Rushworth started the move after collecting a corner and forward Olamide Shodipo finished it, tucking away Danny Mandroiu’s cross into the box, after being sent racing away by Lasse Sorensen.
Argyle suffered a further setback in the 47th minute as City extended their lead through Ben House, who held off central defender James Wilson before turning a letting fly past Greens keeper Calum Burton from inside the box.
Argyle came close to an instant response but Jay Matete’s volley was turned over by defender Harry Boyes.
Argyle’s best first half chance fell to top scorer Ryan Hardie, who raced clear to beat the offside trap but could not beat Rushworth at his near post.
As Argyle pressed forward, Burton made a superb 70th minute save to deny City substitute striker Luke Plange.
