Argyle youngster Campbell impresses in Trophy win
Seb Campbell celebrates scoring for Plymouth Argyle
Seb Campbell is Plymouth Argyle's joint-top scorer in the EFL Trophy this season

Plymouth Argyle head coach Tom Cleverley says young midfielder Seb Campbell put in his best-ever showing in the 2-1 Jersey Mike's Trophy win over Swindon Town.

The highly-rated 17-year-old scored the winner for Argyle in the final moments of the game.

Campbell is the club's youngest goalscorer, having netted on his debut in last season's competition, aged 16 years and 279 days, and signed his first professional deal in March.

The victory ensured the 2023 finalists top their group and earn a home tie in the last 32.

Campbell has scored in two of his three games in the competition this season, but has yet to add to his sole League One appearance in March when he came on as a substitute at Wigan.

"For me, that was Seb's best performance I've seen," Cleverley told BBC Radio Devon.

"Not many people will see the side of the game that Seb showed without the ball tonight.

"He was very, very disciplined, focused, aggressive - which is a part of Seb's game that he can do because, physically, he's a beast running.

"But I thought in the duels he was very mature and him and Bradley (Ibrahim) are two of the fittest players you'll see, so it allowed us to keep going and keep grinding and in the end he got his rewards for a very, very good performance in my opinion."
