West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke has admitted that his side struggled to create chances against a resolute West Ham United side.
The Baggies were held by the Hammers at the Hawthorns this afternoon, despite shading possession and chances in a tight affair.
Clarke believes that both sides deserved a point for their efforts in a physical battle.
He told BBC Sport: "If you look at the season as a whole we have done OK. Sometimes you have to draw games. Today there were not many chances.
"Both sides huffed and puffed a little bit. If you assess the game properly then I think a draw was a fair result.
"I don't think either ourselves or West Ham played as well as we can. We knew today we had to stop a run of three defeats."
The point keeps West Bromwich Albion in sixth place in the Premier League table, level with Everton and two points behind Tottenham Hotspur in fourth.
