Pilgrims sink teen Terriers

RYAN LOWE could not hide his delight as League One Plymouth caused an upset of sorts by dumping out a spirited but youthful Huddersfield side.

The Pilgrims had not reached the fourth round since 2008 but goals from Ryan Hardie, Panutche Camara and Joe Edwards ensured their progress over Carlos Corberan’s Championship outfit.

Corberan rolled the dice by making 11 changes and flooded his side with promise, fielding a starting line-up with an average age of just over 22.

They twice led in the first half, through Romoney Crichlow’s header and Aaron Rowe’s brilliant strike — both players with their first goals for the club.

But Lowe’s men were not to be denied. Chances had grown scarce after Hardie and Camara’s wellworked equalisers dampened the Terriers’ youthful enthusiasm.

Then on 70 minutes, Danny Mayor cut the ball across the face of goal from the left side and gave skipper Edwards a simple tap-in to send the Pilgrims on their way.
