MELBOURNE Knights and Altona Magic played out a fiery 1-1 draw at Knights Stadium last night.

Altona took the lead through a Michael Curcija penalty just before halftime before the game was turned on its head with the dismissal of Magic defender Steve Laurie.
The Knights responded thanks to a brilliant bicycle kick goal from Anthony Pelikan before they too went a man down after Steve Iosifidis received a second yellow card.
Both sides had chances to win the game, but neither could find the goal which would have netted both ice-breaking wins.
