 Swans' Warren Feeney saw red for a bad tackle on Simon King |
Swansea battled back from a goal down and the 23rd-minute sending-off of Warren Feeney to deny Gillingham. Delroy Facey's early thunderbolt gave new Gills boss Mark Stimson the perfect start, before Swans striker Feeney saw red for a wild lunge on Simon King.
But Paul Anderson converted Darren Pratley's cross in the 79th minute to level things at the Liberty Stadium.
The hosts could even have won it, but Andy Robinson's tame penalty was saved after Ian Cox hauled down Leon Britton.
