Oldham 1-1 Brighton

Ten-man Brighton came from behind to end a four-match losing streak by holding Oldham to a draw.

The Latics took an early lead when veteran Andy Liddell scored from a penalty conceded by Adam Virgo for a clumsy challenge on Chris Taylor.

Glenn Murray was put through by Steve Thomson and out-paced Sean Gregan to level matters from 10 yards.

Virgo was then shown a second yellow, but Brighton held on for a draw thanks to several saves from Michael Kuipers.
