Nigerian striker, Osaze Odemwingie failed to hit the target as his Stoke City side pulled a barren draw against Burnley in their Premier League clash at Turf Moor on Saturday.
The striker, who recently returned to action after a lengthy injury lay off replaced Jonathan Walter in the 59th minute of the tie.
Meanwhile, the Clarets had a bright start to the match as Danny Ings weaved his way through the Stoke defence to get into the box, but the striker could only fire his effort straight at Jack Butland.
Burnley pressed again and only two good stops from Butland prevented them from taking the lead as George Boyd teed up Ings, who saw his close-range effort well saved, while the keeper sprang to his feet to deny Kieran Trippier on the rebound.
David Jones became the latest player to be denied by Butland as the keeper made a terrific save to save the midfielder’s left-footed drive from the edge of the area.
Stoke had the chance to make Burnley pay for their missed opportunities as Charlie Adam whipped a dangerous free kick into the box. Walters managed to slip between two defenders, but could only direct his header straight at Tom Heaton.
In the second half, Ings continued to be a threat as he raced into the box and had options in support to carve out an opening, but he chose to go himself and fired his strike straight at Butland.
The Potters created an opportunity when Marko Arnautovic speeded down the right and lifted a cross into the box for the run of Mame Biram Diouf, but Jason Shackell did enough to deflect the ball behind.
Stoke pushed for a late winner as Marc Muniesa fired a shot at goal from the edge of the box, but Heaton saved with ease to ensure his side earned a share of the spoils.
