Sheffield Wednesday moved into the Championship play-off places by coming from behind to draw 1-1 and ensure Cardiff City did not make it two wins from two under Neil Warnock.
The Bluebirds made an energetic start and were rewarded when Peter Whittingham gave them an early lead with a superb free kick.
A win would have moved the Welsh club out of the relegation zone but the visitors had the better of the second half and deservedly levelled through Daniel Pudil's first goal since December.
But the bad news for the Owls was an injury to goalkeeper Kieren Westwood, who was forced off in the first half having had treatment following a wayward clearance.
In the evening's other game, Huddersfield Town suffered back-to-back defeats in going down 3-1 at Preston North End.
Huddersfield would have gone level on points with leaders Newcastle but Paul Gallagher inspired Preston to their fourth straight victory at home.
Gallagher teed up Tom Clarke and Alex Baptiste in the first half before netting a free kick himself after the break to extend Preston's unbeaten run to five games.
Nahki Wells grabbed a late consolation for Huddersfield, who still have not won at Deepdale since 1969.
