Doncaster Rovers 0 - 1 Plymouth Argyle: Bradley header sinks leaders Doncaster and puts Plymouth in title hunt
Posted Sunday, March 26, 2017 by PA
Plymouth blew the League One title race wide open with a 1-0 win at leaders Doncaster.
Sonny Bradley's bullet header early in the second half moved second-placed Argyle to within three points of their opponents.
Plymouth came with a plan to defend deep and counter attack and it worked to perfection as Doncaster's unbeaten home run was ended one game short of a full year.
Argyle were indebted to goalkeeper Luke McCormick for two stunning saves either side of half-time.
First he pushed away a downward header from John Marquis and then, after Plymouth had gone ahead, tipped over a rasping volley from James Coppinger.
Plymouth's goal came on 50 minutes when Bradley peeled away from his marker and powered in a header at the back post.
In the last minute Jakub Sokolik produced a vital block from Tommy Rowe to ensure the win for Plymouth, while a volley from Coppinger bounced narrowly wide in the final seconds.
