Sheffield United and Leyton Orient shared the points at Bramall Lane in a 1-1 draw.
Dean Cox fired the visitors ahead with a well-executed finish just before the break.
Sheffield United levelled just past the hour when Jamie Murphy got in behind the Orient defence before rounding the keeper and firing home.
The draw did little for either club as their own personal hopes of automatic promotion and the play-offs were dealt another blow.
