Late Ross Goal Lifts Plymouth Argyle Over Stevenage in League One Opener
PLYMOUTH, England (March 17, 2026) (Interstat) — Defender Mathias Ross scored the decisive goal in the 57th minute to give Plymouth Argyle a 1-0 victory over Stevenage in a League One match Tuesday at Home Park.
The match, which defied a pregame projection of a 1-1 draw by Interstat, was settled by Ross’s second-half strike. The buildup included an assist from defender Alex Mitchell. Substitute Lewis Freestone, who recorded an earlier assist, was also involved in the sequence.
Stevenage, which saw four players receive yellow cards, failed to find an equalizer. The result gave Plymouth Argyle a winning start to both its League One campaign and overall season, while Stevenage began with a loss in each. Interstat’s pre-match model had given the home side a 72.3% probability to win.
