Matt Smith tapped in an injury-time winner as Salford City ended a four-game losing run at Newport County.
Junior Luamba hit the post before setting up Smith on 92 minutes for his 25th goal of the season.
Newport’s Omar Bogle struck the crossbar with a second-half free-kick but the hosts slumped to a seventh loss in a row as their season slides away.
But Salford had by far the more chances as Ryan Watson, Adrian Mariappa and Curtis Tilt all went close.
Newport teenager Nelson Sanca impressed in defence with a player of the match display in only his third appearance.
