Substitute Kaid Mohamed netted the winner as Cheltenham came from behind to beat Plymouth.

The visitors broke the deadlock on the half-hour mark when Conor Hourihane nestled a fine shot into the bottom corner of the net.

But their lead only lasted for seven minutes as Steve Elliott headed in a Billy Jones free-kick.

Plymouth had a penalty appeal waved away before Jones set up Mohamed, who nodded in his third of the season.

VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM

Cheltenham Town manager Mark Yates told BBC Gloucestershire:

"I thought we were outstanding, especially in the first half.

"We earned out luck at the end when Scott Brown made a fantastic save.

"Chris Zebroski was outstanding but he was guilty of missing three or four chances.

"But we'll take that because he's a proper lad and put in a proper shift."
