Neal Eardley's late equaliser snatched a point for 10-man Oldham.

Daniel Jones was red-carded after fouling Cleveland Taylor, with Michael Bridges firing the resulting penalty past keeper Shane Supple.

Danny Whitaker wasted a great chance to level for Oldham when he headed Eardley's 75th-minute cross wide of the target from close range.

But the Latics never gave up and were rewarded when Eardley smashed a 35-yard free-kick into the net.
