Peterborough claimed their first point of the season after Cian Hayes equalised late on in a 1-1 draw with Bradford.
Posh looked to be heading for a fifth straight defeat before Hayes scored in the first minute of added time. It was their first League One goal from open play this campaign.
Will Swan's third goal in four games for Bradford had put them on course for a fourth win before Hayes hit back.

Peterborough started well with efforts from Archie Collins and Brandon Khela saved by Sam Walker. Gustav Lindgren went close with a deflected shot that just missed the post.
Defender Matt Pennington had Bradford's best attempt before they took the lead after 55 minutes. Alex Pattison won the ball from former Bantams loanee Khela and George Lapslie fed Swan to finish.
Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson made a quadruple change which livened up the home side, and two of those substitutes combined for the equaliser.
Declan Frith pulled the ball back and Hayes hooked a shot past Walker into the bottom corner.
