Dunfermline Athletic's Scottish Championship title challenge suffered another setback in a drab stalemate at Greenock Morton.

Morton goalkeeper denied Iain Wilson, Dom Thomas and Declan McManus before Lewis McCann fired narrowly wide as the visitors failed to find a cutting edge.

A third straight draw leaves second-place Dunfermline four points below Hearts, who face Alloa on Saturday.

Morton - now unbeaten in five - climb above Raith Rovers into the top four.
