Muslic said: “The message at half time was we are in this game and we must believe we can turn this.”
Muhamed Tijani scored an 88th minute winner after Ryan Hardie – with nine goals in his last 11 games – cancelled out Jesurun Rak-Sakyi’s 44th minute opener.
Muslic admitted: “They are a top team and would have wanted to score a second goal.
“It’s important to start strong but more important to finish strong.
“I knew if we had to do something extraordinary Joe (Edwards) can help us.
“Joe’s first action without touching the ball was to lift the crowd and that was massive.
“Joe did it today, like a skipper. Magnificent.
“I think Joe himself would have been frustrated at not starting.
“But I think today’s decision was the right one. And he will start the next game.
“I went with (Muhamed) Tijani because for the last 30 (minutes) because I thought we could win the game.
“He flicked-on four or five, six headers then rewarded himself with a brilliant goal.
“After the Swansea defeat I predicted the unpredictability of Argyle. It drives me crazy and costs me lots of lost sleep at night.
“We have to believe we can win games back-to-back. We have been here before now we have to do it next Friday.
“Bali (Mumba) was key for us to turn the game.
“I knew once Ryan (Hardie) scored then that would be big for us and I thought ‘we can do this’.
“The almost impossible is possible again.”
