Substitute goalkeeper David Hutton saved a late penalty to earn a point for 10-man Airdrie - as they held league leaders Dunfermline in a second drama-filled battle inside a week.
Last Saturday, the Diamonds were 3-0 up before going down to 10 men and losing 4-3 at New Broomfield last week.
And they looked set to suffer a similar fate at East End Park when Ben Stanway's first-half opener was cancelled out by substitute Nikolay Todorov's header, and then the hosts earned a late penalty.
