Partick Thistle 2 : 2 Falkirk - Erskine salvages point for Partick
Posted Saturday, October 22, 2011 by PA
Chris Erskine's injury-time equaliser rescued a 2-2 draw for Partick at home to Falkirk.
Just five minutes earlier, Kallum Higginbotham thought he had grabbed a late winner for the Bairns.
Striker Farid El Alagui gave the visitors the lead 10 minutes before half-time, heading home Blair Alston's cross.
But David Rowson levelled for the hosts three minutes after the restart, firing home from way outside the box after Paul Cairney had played him in.
Higginbotham looked to have scored the decisive goal after 85 minutes, the striker scoring from a free-kick after Alan Archibald had felled Ryan Millar.
But second-half substitute Erskine snatched a point for his side two minutes into injury time, finding the top corner from 12 yards.
