Best 0-0 you've ever seen?

For me, they don't come a lot better than tonight's 0-0 draw between Argentina and Colombia. Desperate defending by Colombia, with wonderful goalkeeping from Ospina.

Only spoiled by the Argies winning the shootout, although they did blow their first two chances to seal it.

I also remember really enjoying a 0-0 between the Albion and Norwich at the Goldstone in the 80s but I can't remember why.

So what's been your best 0-0 draw?

Coventry 0-0 Brighton.....we murdered them, just couldn't score. My first and last trip to (a perfectly serviceable) Highfield Road before it was demolished.

Albion Vs Spurs approx 1977. End to end all action but nobody delivering the killer blow although both teams tried their darned best. Great
game described by Brian Moore on The Big Match as one of the best no score draws he had ever witnessed.

Brazil 0-0 Mexico at the most recent World Cup was pretty decent, with Ochoa making some ridiculous saves for Mexico.

For me, too. For a 0-0 draw to live on in the memory after nearly 40 years shows what a great game it was. 48,000 in White Hart Lane helped, though.

Was that the one where the Huddersfield player deliberately missed a tap in from 2 yards to ensure it stayed 0-0. The actions of a genuine Corinthian.

Leicester v Brighton under Adams II on a Tuesday night. Us in their yellow away kit. Stunning performance from John Sullivan.

That's the one for me too. Eric Steele was superb that day.

Home to Hull 2011? Not for the match but my first ever trip to the AMEX almost brought me to tears as I walked into the stand thinking this place is OURS! Good job I didn't go to the Doncaster game,don,t think I could have kept it together.(Mind you don,t think I would have been the only one)

Another vote here for the 0-0 draw at White Hart Lane in 1977

Spurs were the classic Big Side feeling sorry for themselves having to slum it in the second division with the likes of us.
I travelled up from Bournemouth in the back of a mini van and it was my first away game at one of these big famous sides.
I have no idea whether we had to have tickets or paid on the gate. Such things were not a foregone conclusion in those days.
48,000 packed in to White Hart Lane, the majority like us standing. Ex-Spurs legend Mullers managing the Albion
I expect if Opta had been around in those days the possession figures would have shown Spurs had the best of it, but we earned a deserved draw imo

In 2004 we had a 0-0 at Ashton Gate which was the same sort of game. 100% effort from the Albion in all departments and returning home with a point.
Bristol in 2004 doesn't have the same romance in my memory as North London in in late 70's

Away at Pompey. Can't remember how many years ago, but another where we absolutely MULLERED them. I think it was Alan Knight in goal for them that night and played a blinder.
