Alex McCarthy produced a stunning late save to earn Yeovil a deserved point away to Millwall.
McCarthy was at full stretch to hold on to Gary Alexander's low drive from close range in a game of precious few clear-cut chances.
Steve Morison's looping header from James Henry's corner deceived keeper McCarthy only to hit the crossbar.
The visitors' best efforts came from long-range drives by Shaun MacDonald and JP Kalala that hit the woodwork.
Yeovil Town player-manager Terry Skiverton told BBC Somerset:
"Arguably with hitting the woodwork twice we had the two best chances and we're maybe a little bit disappointed not to have come away with a little bit more.
"I don't think you can come to places like the New Den and not put your body on the line.
"When a centre-forward swipes away the keeper's legs in the air and nearly breaks his neck I'm happy with the response of my players.
"You come to these places and you're against everyone - their fans, the ref as well and I felt that we stood up to everyone very well and walked away with a worthy draw."
