Stanley force replay against League One opposition
Goalkeeper Kenny Arthur was Accrington Stanley's hero as he earned his side an FA Cup first-round replay with an inspired performance in the goalless draw with Tranmere.
The former Partick shot-stopper was at his best in the first half as he denied Bas Savage, Ian Moore, Antony Kay (twice) and Gareth Edds with a string of top-drawer saves.
Jimmy Ryan and John Miles went closest for Stanley, who haven't won an FA Cup tie for almost five years, in the first period.
But chances were at a premium in the second half and Chris Shuker missed the best chance of the match when he stole in from the left, but spooned his effort over the bar after 69 minutes.
Rostyn Griffiths blazed over from 20 yards a minute later, but Tranmere almost stole the game late on when Savage's effort was deflected just over the bar by Kieran Charnock.
