Peterborough were knocked off the top of Sky Bet League One after being held to a 2-2 draw by Blackpool.
Rhys Bennett headed his first Posh goal in the 27th minute to give the hosts the edge as Blackpool conceded on the road for the first time in the league this season.
The visitors were denied an equaliser by the woodwork just before half-time as Curtis Tilt sent a header from a corner against the crossbar, but they did level matters just before the hour when Armand Gnanduillet tapped in Nathan Delfouneso's cutback.
That 59th-minute strike sparked a spell of three goals and a near-miss in quick succession.
Ivan Toney crashed a shot against the bar within a minute of his side being pegged back before substitute Mark O'Hara made an immediate impact with an unstoppable 20-yard strike to restore Peterborough's lead in the 64th minute.
But Blackpool were level again 90 seconds later thanks to a stunning Delfouneso effort from the edge of the box.
The visitors squandered the best chance to claim victory as Jordan Thompson fired wide of a gaping goal before Mark Howard pulled off a flying save to keep out a Jason Naismith thunderbolt in the dying seconds.
