to nick a draw
What does nick mean in the following sentence:
Robert Lewandowski scores with final kick as Bayern Munich nick draw at Hertha Berlin

I Googled the word 'nick', but couldn't get the meaning and its usage, but I came across another sentence with probably the same usage: Sunderland are 22/1 to nick a draw in the closing minutes here.
I guess nick here means to steal, but aren't sure.

Answer

I guess it means "to reach a draw through luck or chance", if we understand "nick" to be "steal".

"Steal a draw from certain defeat" if you like.

Answer

Yes - "steal" in a quick and informal way.  It's a British slang word.
[You open a bag of crisps on the table and your friend is with you] "Hey! Don't nick my crisps without asking me first!"

Answer

In British slang 'nick' can also refer to a police station. (Although obviously not in this case).
