Notts County have played out a goalless draw against Luton Town as Vadaine Oliver failed to convert a late penalty in Saturday's League Two clash at Meadow Lane.
In a tight game of few clear-cut chances, Aaron Collins hit the bar with a header in the first half, while for the visitors, Jack Marriott saw an effort fly narrowly wide, before Danny Hylton slipped when trying to shoot.
A foul on Haydn Hollis in the final ten minutes of the game gave the Magpies a chance to edge ahead, but goalkeeper Christian Walton was able to make the save and keep the visitors in the game.
From the resulting corner, Carl Dickinson could have won it but he headed against the bar, while Hylton found himself in a good position late on but was thwarted by a Notts defender as it ended honours even.
The result means that Notts stay sixth in the League Two table on 22 points, though the division is so tight that only six points separate them from Exeter City, Hartlepool United, Wycombe Wanderers and Cambridge United - all hovering above the drop zone.
