Scunthorpe 2-2 Swansea
Rory Fallon snatched a draw for 10-man Swansea as both teams earned their first points in League One this season.
The Swans were a man down after just 16 minutes when Alan Tate was sent off for a wild two-footed lunge.
But they took a surprise lead on the stroke of half-time when Andy Robinson fired in a cracking shot from 18 yards.
Scunthorpe pressed hard and were ahead on 67 minutes when Bill Sharp added to Andy Crosby's penalty, but Fallon headed the equaliser 10 minutes later.
