Ten-man Arbroath held off Hamilton as their crunch battle at the bottom of the Scottish Championship ended 0-0.

The visitors had to play with a numerical disadvantage for 73 minutes after Ricky Little was sent off for denying Jean-Pierre Tiehi a goalscoring opportunity.

Manager Dick Campbell was also sent off after the break, but goalkeeper Derek Gaston made a number of impressive saves to earn his side a point.

He saved from Connor Smith just before the break and then kept out Reghan Tumilty’s effort in the second half as bottom-club Arbroath stayed a point below their ninth-placed opponents.
