Two penalties inside the final five minutes of the half have seen Rotherham United take a 1-1 draw in at half time against 10-man Cardiff City.
In a fairly timid opening, Rotherham came closest on 13 minutes when a goal-bound header was cleared off the line from a corner.
Cardiff nearly profited from Peter Whittingham's teasing delivery, but Rotherham defender Richard Smallwood did well to block the shot.
Matt Derbyshire pounced on a mistake in the Cardiff defence on 32 minutes, but the chance went begging as his strike partner Jonson Clarke-Harris failed to connect with the cross.
Cardiff had goalkeeper David Marshall sent off for kicking out towards the end of the half, and it was Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe who netted the resulting spot kick inside the final five minutes of the half.
However, the Welsh side responded three minutes into stoppage time when Whittingham converted his own penalty.
