Mark Kitching broke the deadlock inside the final 10 minutes
York City won the first-ever fifth tier game to be played in Cornwall as they beat Truro City 2-0.
The Tinners - who were National League South champions last season - more than held their own against last season's beaten play-off semi-finalists.
But despite creating some good chances, they were undone with seven minutes to go when Mark Kitching tapped in from close range after Dan Lavercombe failed to hold Malachi Fagan-Walcott's shot.
Five minutes later the result was put beyond doubt when Ollie Pearce won the ball in midfield and played in substitute Josh Stones, who calmly slotted home with his left foot.
The win was York's first of the season following a 2-2 draw with Sutton United last week, while Truro are still looking for their first point - and first goal - after a 2-0 loss at Wealdstone in their opening fixture.
Dominic Johnson-Fisher (centre) was one of Truro's main attacking threats
A crowd of more than 3,000 saw Truro – who only returned to Cornwall after being homeless for almost four years - go close in the opening 20 seconds as Dominic Johnson-Fisher almost got on the end of a clever Lirak Hasani pass.
But with a strong wind at York's backs in the opening period the visitors created some good chances down the right through the industrious Joe Felix.
As the half wore on Truro grew in confidence and Johnson-Fisher narrowly missed the target after being put through in the 33rd minute, while Connor Riley-Lowe shot wide three minutes later as York failed to deal with a corner.
York had the best chance of the game nine minutes into the second half as Kitching cut in from the left and his perfect low cross found Alex Newby who could only fire straight at Lavercombe from eight yards.
With the wind at Truro's backs, Christian Oxlade-Chamberlain's long throws were even more of a threat than usual for the hosts - centre-back Callum Howe almost scored a 65th minute own goal while another whistled past the post eight minutes later.
However York showed their experience in the final 10 minutes – Lavercombe did well to claw away Pearce's shot from the edge of the box before blocking Kitching's effort on the rebound with minutes to go.
But a minute later Kitching made no mistake from close range before Stones ensured York's near 800-mile round-trip was worthwhile.
Truro City manager John Askey told BBC Sport:
"For the majority of the game we've matched York and then the first goal's killed us, it's poor from our point of view.
"Then to compound it, the second goal we should be putting the ball in into the opposition's box and we end up playing backwards and it's cost us.
"So poor decision-making and errors that on another day it could be different, but we've got to do better."
York City manager Adam Hinshelwood told BBC Radio York:
"It was tricky conditions, it was difficult to play and I thought first half we played some good stuff.
"Some of our intricate play was excellent and them we really lacked the end ball - a lot of that was the wind.
"But good teams find a way, I thought we started the second half really well, then we had to weather a storm for 20 minutes and then I think our impetus came back as we had a bit of courage and bravery to play from the back.
"I think that led to the chances so that was pleasing to see."
