Guy Branston's stoppage time equaliser completed a thrilling comeback for Torquay away at Macclesfield.
The Silkmen raced into a two-goal lead when Tyrone Barnett headed back across goal, and Colin Daniel then shot into the top corner from inside the box.
Jake Robinson pulled one back, stroking into the bottom corner, only for Hamza Bencherif to then power home a header.
Daniel handled in the area and Robinson scored the spot-kick, before Branston headed in dramatically from a throw-in.
