Leyton Orient came from behind to draw 2-2 with Scunthorpe On This Day in 2008. 

United went ahead when Izzy Iriekpen swept in after Orient failed to clear Grant McCann's corner and Paul Hayes headed a second for the visitors.

Joe Murphy was sent off for a foul on JJ Melligan in the penalty area and although Boyd's penalty was saved he scored the rebound.

And skipper Purches earned a point with a cool finish after 68 minutes.
