Rochdale and Forest Green fought out a National League stalemate at the Crown Oil Arena as both recovered from midweek defeats.

Both sides were looking for a winning formula after Rochdale lost 1-0 to York on Tuesday, and Forest Green went down by the same score against Barnet.

But it proved an encounter of few clear-cut chances, although Forest Green had more shots on goal and collected eight corners to Rochdale's five.

It proved a frustrating afternoon for both teams although Ben Tozer's long throws for Rovers caused the Rochdale defence some nervous moments and Liam Sercombe forced a good save from Luke McNicholas from one of them.

Both sides return to action on Monday when Rochdale make the long trip to Yeovil and Forest Green entertain Altrincham.
