Port Vale miss chance to close in on playoffs

Port Vale miss the chance to move within four points of the playoff places in League One after being held to a 0-0 draw away to Shrewsbury Town.

Port Vale have missed the chance to move within four points of the playoff places in League One after being held to a 0-0 draw away to Shrewsbury Town.

The stalemate sees Micky Adams's men remain ninth in the standings, six points adrift of sixth-placed Peterborough United.

The game sparked into life shortly after the restart following an insipid opening 45 minutes to the encounter, with Asa Hall unleashing a fierce 25-yard drive that sailed narrowly past the post.

Consequently, Town grew in confidence and almost edged ahead in the contest once again, with Jermaine Grandison and Connor Goldson both heading past the post from corners.

Paul Parry should have fired Michael Jackson's men ahead while standing unmarked at the back post following a swift passing move, but he miscued his effort at the decisive moment.

Both sides ultimately failed in their bid to find the winner and were forced to settle for a share of the spoils.
