Estoril midfielder Afonso Taira scored six minutes into stoppage time to snatch a 2-2 draw with Rio Ave in a Portuguese league match both teams finished with 10 men on Saturday.

Estoril played a man down from the 16th when striker Leo Bonatini saw a direct red card for a tackle. Marvin Zeegelaar gave Rio Ave the lead a minute before halftime before Diego Carlos levelled for Estoril in the 56th.

Rio Ave lost Anibal Capela to a second booking in the 78th, but appeared to have gotten the winner through Helder Guedes in the 88th, only for Taira to strike before the final whistle.

Third-place Rio Ave failed to pull level on points with leader FC Porto and second-place Sporting Lisbon. Estoril was left sixth.
