Moses scored the only goal of the game in the 17th minute, latching onto a touchline cross from left-back Lee Hills by chesting the ball down and turning in one swift movement to send marker Chris Barker the wrong way.[LNB]The 19-year-old then coolly finished with a left-footed strike from 10 yards to score his sixth goal in eight league games.[LNB]Warnock said: "It was hard work. The weather has been atrocious. Once it started to rain I knew it would lash down and stay throughout the game but we prepared really well. We got it spot-on.[LNB]"I stressed to them what the pitch was going to be like and the team that we were playing against are fighting for their lives. We had to match them and I went with a team with a spine, and I thought the spine was very strong today.[LNB]"I said to them that whatever football they thought about playing they had to go back to basics because of the conditions. I thought the best player on the pitch scored the winner. There was only him who could have scored a goal like that in those conditions."[LNB]Argyle head coach Paul Mariner - who started without flu ridden striker Jamie Mackie for a second game - said: "Neil has got them going well.[LNB]"The lad took his goal really well, he showed fantastic balance and composure in the box.[LNB]"It was exquisite from a pure footballing viewpoint. Obviously not from our viewpoint.[LNB]"It really hammered it down and when the pitch is a little heavy to say the least.[LNB]"There's a couple points we take from it and they were that we kept going until the end, kept battling and stuck at it.[LNB]"I wouldn't think that Neil was all that comfortable on the bench thinking he was cruising to a 1-0 victory but Palace were very strong defensively.[LNB]"We were better in the second half, we tried a couple of different systems, a diamond and 4-4-2 but we just could not get that breakthrough. It's a disappointing afternoon because again we've got nothing out of it."[LNB][LNB]
