Barnsley picked up a crucial point in a 1-1 draw with League One promotion hopefuls Oxfored United.
Reds defender Jack Shepherd was sent for an early bath just nine minutes in, seeing red after a reckless foul on Louie Sibley.
Barnsley managed to take the lead regardless, opening the scoring when Vimal Yoganathan converted from a Jubril Okedina cross.
Oxford managed to equalise through Mark Harris, yet a second goal eluded the U’s in South Yorkshire. They also lost goalkeeper Jamie Cumming to a red card late on, intensifying their frustration.
