Joe Grey stepped off the bench to score his third goal of the season and earn Hartlepool a 2-2 draw at Altrincham.
The visitors broke the deadlock in the 15th minute when Oliver Finney chipped the ball over home goalkeeper Ethan Ross and into the net.
Altrincham hit back eight minutes later, with Isaac Marriott firing in from close range.
And the home side went in front just before the break as Lewis Baines hammered home in first-half stoppage time.
Hartlepool substitute Grey levelled things up 14 minutes after coming on, slotting home in the 76th minute to earn his side a point.
