Tranmere Rovers 0-0 Newport County
- Published
On-loan keeper Joe Day was Newport County's hero as they came away from Tranmere Rovers unbeaten in five games.
The hosts dominated throughout, but Day, on loan from Peterborough, thwarted their attacking efforts.
Abdulai Bell-Baggie hit the side-netting with his first chance before Day blocked with his feet.
Home keeper Owain Fon Williams denied a rare Newport attack when he tipped Chris Zebroski's 27th-minute shot over the bar.
Eliot Richards missed the target as the break beckoned, while Marc Laird and Cole Stockton's efforts also failed.
And Bell-Baggie's speculative shot landed on the roof of County's net as the Welsh side held on for a point.
Newport County manager Justin Edinburgh told BBC Radio Wales:
"We had to soak up a lot of pressure in the game but it was a very good away performance by ourselves.
"We were solid without being spectacular. When the keeper was called upon he was fantastic
"It's an excellent clean sheet and keeps the run going."
