Nicky Forster bagged a double as 10-man Brighton drew with Carlisle and extend their unbeaten run to eight games. Midfielder Simon Hackney drove Carlisle ahead with a fierce left-foot shot, but striker Forster equalised two minutes after the break with a classy finish.
Joe Garner pounced to restore Carlisle's lead from close range and Brighton had midfielder George O'Callaghan sent off for stamping.
But Forster levelled on 84 minutes with a clean strike from Bas Savage's cross.
