Chris Colemen's men saw more of the ball in the first half but it was the visitors who came closest to breaking the deadlock.

Shane Long wasted a good opportunity in the 26th minute after latching on to a ball from James McCarthy, but the West Bromwich Albion forward skied his shot.

Robbi Brady went close with a curling effort just before the break, but although Boaz Myhill was beaten the ball flew just past the post.

Keirin Westwood was called upon down the other end in the second half, saving superbly as Craig Bellamy's free kick looked destined for the net.

Both teams looked capable of nicking a win in the dying stages but the scoresheet remained clean.
