Atdhe Nuhiu headed a 95th-minute equaliser to give Sheffield Wednesday a last-gasp draw at Ipswich Town.
The big Kosovo forward, sent on as a substitute in the closing stages, met Adam Reach's cross at the far post as the Owls twice came from behind.
After a low-key first half, Joe Garner steered Ipswich ahead before Gary Hooper levelled from the spot after Jordan Spence handled in the area.
Martyn Waghorn headed Town back ahead, but Nuhiu equalised with seconds left.
The result extends Sheffield Wednesday's unbeaten run in the Championship to five matches, while Ipswich remain ninth after a second successive draw.
The Tractor Boys will rue missed opportunities at both 1-0 and 2-1 up, with Freddie Sears failing to beat Keiren Westwood when one-on-one and Spence unable to control when well placed in the box.
Wednesday were also arguably fortunate to have escaped a sending off inside the opening three minutes at Portman Road, after Glenn Loovens caught David McGoldrick in the thigh with a studs-up challenge that resulted in no more than a warning from the referee.
Ipswich boss Mick McCarthy said after the match that McGoldrick will have surgery on Thursday on a "four-inch gash on his groin" caused by the tackle.
