Norwich City loanee Bali Mumba reacts to scoring v Ipswich Town for Plymouth Argyle | OneFootball

Plymouth Argyle earned a fine three points at home to Ipswich Town yesterday afternoon, taking them top of the League One table.

After being behind thanks to Freddie Ladapo’s 39th minute strike, Argyle would go on to find not only an equaliser, but a winning goal in the last 20 or so minutes of the game.

Putting an extra twist on things, it would be a player from Ipswich’s bitter rivals – Norwich City – that would score the first goal of the game, with Canaries loanee Bali Mumba netting for Argyle in the 69th minute.

Speaking after the match, Mumba revealed he was ‘buzzing’ and happy it was him that got the equaliser.

“The lads were brilliant,” Muma told Plymouth club media.

“At 1-0 down we kept the faith, kept our belief, and kept going. We showed good character to get back into the game and to take all three points.

“We’ve shown in a few games that we can be down, but the character we have and the attitude means we were give it a good try.
