Substitute Tyler Smith earned Bradford a late point in their 1-1 Yorkshire derby with Doncaster at Valley Parade.
It was a first League Two game in 17 days for the home side after successive postponements.
They took a while to get going as the visitors enjoyed the better of a feisty first half that saw seven bookings.
Hakeeb Adelakun's free-kick set up their first chance, the ball deflecting off the wall into the Bradford penalty area where Owen Bailey set up Joe Ironside, whose goal-bound shot took a deflection wide.
Alex Gilliead created Bradford's best chance with a low cross that Tyreik Wright jabbed past the post.
