John Spicer netted a second-half winner as Notts County beat Plymouth in the first round of the Carling Cup.
It was stalemate at half-time, with Bradley Wright-Phillips going closest to opening the scoring but he fired wide from eight yards.
Spicer was on hand to put the visitors ahead on 52 minutes, picking up a loose ball and edging it past Romain Larrieu.
Argyle substitute Steve MacLean forced a superb save from Stuart Nelson late on but County held to their lead.
Plymouth Argyle manager Peter Reid told BBC Radio Devon:
"We were a bit anxious and gave away too many free kicks for my liking, a little bit of rash, naive football.
"We had chances, but sometimes at home you need to be a bit patient on the ball and we just went a bit long in certain ways.
"Sometimes you've got to play football with your head and we didn't do that too well tonight."
Notts County manager Craig Short told BBC Radio Nottingham: "We played some good football and had some energy about us.
"I thought we got bullied a little bit on Saturday against Huddersfield but we didn't get that today.
"I am really proud of them. Today we showed what we're like and I'm chuffed to bits with them."
