Luton keeper Mark Tyler was the hero as he helped the managerless Hatters hold promotion hopefuls Portsmouth to their sixth goalless draw of the season.

The 38-year-old's point-blank saves to deny Gareth Evans and Marc McNulty were the pick of the bunch.

He also made another double save from Kyle Bennett and McNulty to earn his first clean sheet since 21 November.

Luton, under the caretaker charge of Andy Awford since the dismissal of John Still, only had one effort on target.

Luton caretaker boss Andy Awford told BBC Three Counties Radio:

"I'm delighted with the spirit and character of the players. They deserved that point today and they deserved that clean sheet. I'm delighted for everybody.

"We've conceded too many goals of late, haven't we? That's no secret. We needed to shore things up. We've been trying to do that and still be an attacking threat. Today, I think we were.

"I don't know if I'll be in charge next game. I'll just report in tomorrow and get on with it until somebody tells me different. When the club's ready to appoint the manager, he'll come in.

"I haven't applied for the job and if the club want to talk to me about it, they know where I am."
