Stoke City stretched their unbeaten run to five matches following a tedious draw against Sunderland.
Chances were few and far between on Wearside as The Black Cats failed to break down Tony Pulis' well-organised Potters.
Dean Whitehead missed a glorious chance to put the visitors in front in the third minute after Tuncay's flick, but his shot was saved by Craig Gordon.
Early in the second half saw Kenwyne Jones clear a goalmouth scramble with Mamady Sibide poised to pounce.
Fraizer Campbell missed the hosts best chance when he missed Boudewijn Zenden's cross in the 77th minute.
The draw ended Sunderland's three-match losing run, manager Steve Bruce will be less than impressed by the lack of invention and creation from his players on home soil.
Strikers Darren Bent and Jones were given little service from a midfield outwitted by yet another stubborn performance from a well-drilled Stoke side who were boosted by the return of defender Abdoulaye Faye and midfielder Salif Diao.
