Cesc Fabregas has spared Arsenal from an FA Cup defeat to second-tier club Leeds, scoring a 90th-minute penalty to salvage a 1-1 draw in the third round at the Emirates Stadium.
The captain struck from the spot after Theo Walcott's shirt was pulled by Ben Parker.
Leeds, which upset Manchester United in the third round last season, went ahead in the 54th minute when Robert Snodgrass netted a penalty kick after Max Gradel was brought down by Denilson.
The replay will be later this month.
