Leicester City remain one point adrift of safety at the bottom of Division 1 after earning a goalless draw at relegation rivals Derby County.
There were few chances in the match at St George's Park, although the Foxes thought they had won it late on when Alex Pascanu headed goalwards only for referee Steven Rushton to rule that the ball had not crossed the line.
