FC Dallas remain rooted to the bottom of the table despite holding the top side San Jose Earthquakes to a goalless draw.
In a game of few clear cut opportunities, it was Chris Wondolowski who perhaps missed the best in the 36th minute when the San Jose striker fired wide from inside the box.
Brazilian defender Jackson, a second-half substitute, failed to convert Dallas's best chance when he blazed over in the 52nd minute.
Ramiro Corrales saw red late on for San Jose after receiving his second yellow card for a foul on Carlos Rodriguez.
The result means that San Jose remain three points clear at the top of the MLS Western Conference, while Dallas find themselves four points adrift of Chivas USA.
