Huddersfield's run of four away wins came to a halt on a night Bristol Rovers crept back into their fans affections.
After being booed off on Saturday it was cheers this time for a passionate display after Town's keeper Phil Senior had allowed a 69th minute shot from Graham Hyde to slip through his hands.
Defenders thought the danger from a Simon Bryant free-kick had passed, but from the edge of the box Hyde hit only his second goal in two years since joining Rovers from Birmingham City.
Polish Under-21 cap Pawel Abbott, on loan from Preston, salvaged a point for the visitors near the end.
Given too much room, his well-struck shot from the right whipped past home keeper Ryan Clarke, who had no chance at all.
But in added-on time he did well to fist away another shot from the Pole which could easily have kept Huddersfield's run going.
Abbott was only brought into the game at half-time as Huddersfield abandoned the tactic of using veteran Andy Booth as their only man up front.
It was a system which brought them a 1-0 win at Torquay on Saturday, but one which looked exaggerated against this Rovers side with its fragile confidence.
More pressure was needed, for Booth had managed only one shot and Clarke had been able to watch that safely past his right post.
Reserve keeper Clarke was told he was playing only an hour before the start when regular choice Keith Miller dropped out through illness.
He had a good game handling cleanly and establishing a quick understanding with his backline.
After their 3-0 drubbing by Darlington on Saturday Rovers had shuffled their side, pushing Danny Boxall forward into a wing-back role.
He quickly set up a chance when he dragged the ball past Tony Lloyd on the right flank.
The cross was good, but Nathan Clarke made the first of several significant headers to take the pressure off Huddersfield.
Abbott took time to settle for it was Rovers who got on top in the second half. Senior made one good save from Dave Savage and then saw Christian Edwards crash a shot against the bar.
Huddersfield had to work hard to contain Rovers' passion, but worked their way back into the game through Tony Carss and Dave Schofield.
