League Two leaders Leyton Orient maintained their 100 per cent record with a 3-2 win at Newport.
Orient led 2-0 inside seven minutes when Paul McCallum and Jay Simpson both netted their third goals of the season.
But Newport levelled through Scott Boden and Mark Byrne, only for Dean Cox to tuck away a second-half winner.
McCallum out-jumped two defenders to beat Joe Day inside four minutes and Day was then swiftly beaten again by Simpson's thumping 35-yard effort.
Orient should have been even further ahead but Cox shot tamely at Day, McCallum headed wide from close range and then saw a second effort hit the crossbar.
Newport somehow recovered to level before half-time with two goals in the space of 69 seconds.
Boden finished well with his left foot after 41 minutes before captain Byrne curled in a long-range effort past Alex Cisak.
Cox gave Orient the lead once again after 59 minutes when he tucked in Blair Turgott's cross at the near post, but Boden, Aaron Collins and Seth Nana Twumasi went close for Newport late on.
