Sevilla had the best chances to win in a tight and often dull game as it drew 0-0 at Lille in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Sevilla winger Lucas Ocampos went close with a curling shot saved late in the first half and a bicycle kick wide of the post in the second half.

Sevilla should have done enough to secure the first win, with striker Rafa Mir also having a shot saved off the line in the first half, but instead sits in second place in Group G with three points from three games. Lille is third with two points.

Austrian side Salzburg tops the group with seven points after beating last-place Wolfsburg 3-1 at home in the other group game.

Lackluster Lille created only one genuine chance when Portugal winger Renato Sanches profited from the first-half lapse in Sevilla’s defense, but he hit a shot straight at goalkeeper Yassine Bounou’s chest with space to pick his spot either side.
