Derry City and Shamrock Rovers played out a 0-0 draw at the Ryan McBride Brandywell on Friday evening.
The Candystripes had their chance to claim victory but Will Patching saw his penalty saved by Alan Mannus in the Rovers goal.
That result coupled with Dundalk’s 1-0 win over Boh’s means Ruaidhri Higgins’ side are now four points off second place in the table.
