Cabinteely twice came from behind at Stradbrook to deny Cobh their first away win since last April.
Jack Watson’s second of the campaign saw the Dublin side make it two draws in a row while the Rams are now unbeaten in their last two matches.
With 11 minutes to go, sub Paul Fox’s cross caused havoc in the away penalty area. Custodian Paul Hunt spilled under pressure and Watson was on hand to convert close in.
There was a whirlwind start to the game with two goals inside the opening five minutes. The visitors hit the front after just three minutes.
Jason Kabia lofted in a cross from the right. It fell to the unmarked Kevin Taylor who rifled in a close-range half volley at the back stick.
But the home teams’ response was almost instant. Less than 90 seconds later, First Division top-scorer Robert Manley ended his recent goal-drought by lashing to the net from the ‘D’. It was his first goal since April.
However, the Munster outfit regained the lead on 24 minutes. Stephen Christopher got clear down the right flank with his low centre being side-footed in by Kabia from inside the six-yard box.
