Sierra Leone International scored for Plymouth Argyle, but his goal was not enough as their relegation crisis deepened after another 2-1 defeat to Middlesbrough on Friday.

Tommy Conway’s injury-time penalty goal sent Middlesbrough fans into celebration, while Plymouth Argyle supporters were left in disbelief.

Conway scored a 93rd-minute penalty, helping Middlesbrough maintain their hopes of reaching the Championship playoffs against bottom-placed Plymouth Argyle. The penalty was awarded after Argyle captain Joe Edwards pushed Conway over, resulting in Edwards being sent off.

This defeat brought Argyle closer to relegation, as they remain three points below Derby County in 21st place, with a significantly worse goal difference and only three matches left to play.

For Middlesbrough, the victory was crucial, especially with both Bristol City and Coventry City winning their matches. Middlesbrough moved up to seventh place, but they are still three points behind Coventry.

Ex-Argyle loanee Finn Azaz had initially put Middlesbrough in front early in the match, but Mustapha Bundu equalized just five minutes later. Both teams had opportunities to win before Conway’s 13th goal of the season ultimately secured the victory for Middlesbrough.
