While the two sets of forwards appeared to forget their shooting boots in the opening half, it was one rife with attacking play, as both sets of players hunted for the opening goal.
Perhaps the best chance of the opening 45 minutes came when a superb ball in behind unlocked the Rayo rearguard and played in Carlos Perez, but his side-footed effort was coolly saved by Stole Dimitrievski to preserve the stalemate at the break.
The hosts enjoyed much more possession in the second half, and looked to probe the Celta defence, but the visitors sat deep and frustrated Los Franjirrojos.
Despite playing a rather defensive style in the second interval, Celta remained a threat on the break, and even looked the more likely to snatch a winner if either side were to do so.
The hosts looked for all the world to break the deadlock in the final 15 minutes when Alejandro Catena found himself connecting with a point-blank header, but his nod towards goal was saved by Agustin Marchesin to preserve the draw for Carlos Carvalhal’s men.
Six straight games without a win in LaLiga will leave a sour taste in the mouths of the Celta faithful.
After 14 LaLiga games, Los Celestes sit just one point clear of the bottom and are in severe danger of facing their first relegation from the top-flight since 2007.
