...Is it the first time that a team with 1 less player keeps the score tied for a half? ...

Don't know about that. They did show a graphic saying that no team had ever scored in a World Cup with only 9 men.

Cameroon beat Argentina (World Champions at the time) in the opening match in 1990. They definately finished with 9 men, but they may have scored when they still had 10.
