Division 1's bottom two clubs Tottenham Hotspur and Sunderland could not be separated as they shared a goalless draw at Stevenage.
Sunderland's Max Stryjek was the busier of the two goalkeepers.
He denied Shayon Harrison early on before making a double save from Anthony Georgiou (pictured) in the 76th minute.
Spurs remain bottom of the table - one point behind the Black Cats and two behind 10th-placed Manchester United.
