Waine and Cundle put Argyle two ahead

Argyle led Crystal Palace 2–0 at Home Park on 29 August 2023 before losing 4–2. Ben Waine gave the home side an early lead, and Luke Cundle struck immediately after the interval. At that point, Plymouth had scored on either side of half-time without conceding.

Palace then scored three times in five minutes. Odsonne Edouard pulled one back before Jean-Philippe Mateta scored twice in quick succession. Mateta later completed his hat-trick, turning a two-goal deficit into a two-goal victory for the visitors.

The timings explain why the final score alone misses so much of Argyle's evening. Plymouth were ahead at the break and extended that lead before Palace's decisive spell. Supporters revisiting the highlights can follow Waine's opener, Cundle's finish and the visitors' rapid response as the game's three main phases.

The 1973/74 road to Manchester City

The 1973/74 campaign took Plymouth much further. Argyle won 2–0 at Torquay and 4–0 at home to Portsmouth, then beat Burnley 2–1 away. A 3–0 victory at QPR and a 2–1 quarter-final win at Birmingham completed five successful rounds.

Four of those five victories came away from home. That makes the sequence particularly striking: Torquay, Burnley, QPR and Birmingham were all beaten on their own grounds, with Portsmouth providing the only home match before the semi-final.

Manchester City stopped the run over two legs. A 1–1 draw at Home Park left the tie open, but City won the return 2–0 to advance 3–1 on aggregate. The semi-final belongs to the 1973/74 season, while the Palace comeback happened in August 2023; they are distinct chapters in Argyle's cup record.
