Crystal Palace's barren run in front of goal continued as they were held to a goalless draw by Millwall in the London derby this afternoon.

Dougie Freedman's side have now failed to find the net in five league games.

After a goalless first period play was briefly suspended on the hour at Selhurst Park after a couple of bottles were thrown from the Millwall end.

Glenn Murray missed a golden opportunity to end Palace's goal drought fifteen minutes from time but fired his penalty over the bar after Paul Robinson had brought down Paddy McCarthy in the area.

Palace remain tenth despite the draw while Millwall drop one place to 21st.
