Partick Thistle have been left to hold on after being reduced to 10 men in their opening Scottish Premiership clash against Hamilton Academical, which remains goalless at the break.
The first real attempt of the afternoon was fired in by Ali Crawford, who was never likely to get the better of Tomas Cerny from long range.
Liam Lindsay then came close to causing danger when winning a header at the back post, only for Michael McGovern to gather the ball.
A big moment in the opening 45 minutes arrived midway through when Frederic Frans was shown a second yellow card to leave Partick down to 10 for the remainder.
Chris Turner wasted the final chance of the first half when heading over Dougie Imrie's cross to ensure that it remained all square at the interval.
