Lewis Dunk's late equaliser was his third Premier League goal of the season for BrightonLewis Dunk's stoppage-time header condemned Everton to another Premier League draw as 10-man Brighton salvaged a point at Amex Stadium.
Both goals came from central defenders as Dunk headed home Pascal Gross' cross five minutes into time added on to cancel out Jarrad Branthwaite's superb opener.
Branthwaite had produced a forward's finish to break the deadlock, arrowing a first-time shot into the top corner from 15 yards when a free-kick fell at his feet.
It seemed Everton were on course for a vital victory in their battle to avoid relegation when Brighton's Billy Gilmour was then sent off for a studs-up lunge on Amadou Onana's ankle.
But Dunk's header extended the Toffees' winless league run to nine games and they sit just a point above the relegation zone, having played a match more than 18th-placed Luton.
Brighton, meanwhile, remain seventh but have several rivals for European qualification breathing down their necks.
