Derby deny Baggies at the death

Campbell, on loan from Leicester, struck in the fifth minute of injury-time to make amends for the error that looked to have gave West Brom victory.[LNB]It was Campbell who lost possession just two minutes before to allow Graham Dorrans to put Albion 2-1 in front.[LNB]Another Leicester loanee, Paul Dickov, had given Derby the lead three minutes before the break but Simon Cox equalised in controversial circumstances with eight minutes remaining.[LNB]Derby started brightly and carved out an early chance when Lee Croft got clear down the right and his cross just evaded Rob Hulse who was arriving in the six-yard box.[LNB]Cox soon responded for Albion with a snap shot from 10 yards out that struck Stephen Bywater. The Derby keeper knew little about it.[LNB]Cox then tried his luck with an effort from long range that went narrowly wide.[LNB]Albion were fortunate not to be reduced to 10 men when Dorrans reacted angrily to a strong challenge from Robbie Savage on the half-hour mark.[LNB]The Scot got up and appeared to kick Savage in the chest but referee Darren Deadman only produced a yellow card.[LNB]Scott Carson parried a close range effort from Hulse in the 39th minute when County's leading scorer seemed certain to notch his seventh goal of the season from Gary Teale's free-kick.[LNB]But there was nothing Carson could do to keep out Dickov's shot three minutes later.[LNB]Teale teed-up his fellow Scot who struck a first-time shot from the edge of the area that deflected off an Albion defender into the top corner.[LNB]Chris Brunt spurned a good chance to equalise at the start of the second half when he headed over the crossbar.[LNB]At the other end, Carson produced another parrying save to keep out another effort from Dickov.[LNB]Derby continued to dominate but their one-goal lead was beginning to look precarious.[LNB]Substitute Roman Bednar went close midway through the second half before Cox finally levelled things up.[LNB]However, the summer signing from Swindon appeared to bundle Brunt's cross over the line with his hand. Derby players protested furiously but Deadman awarded the goal.[LNB]Dorrans still had plenty to do when he collected the ball midway inside the Derby half but he produced a superb finish into the top corner that looked like earning Albion all three points.[LNB]However, Campbell earned the Rams a deserved draw when he headed home Lee Hendrie's cross at the death.[LNB][LNB]
