No victory was recorded on matchday three as Lobi Stars also held Rivers United to a barren draw in the last fixture on Wednesday.
The second game of matchday three at the ongoing Super Six competition in Lagos ended in a 1-1 draw as Sunshine Stars and Remo Stars ended the Southwestern Derby in a stalemate.
The final score in the derby clash was identical to what obtained in the Enyimba and Bendel Insurance cracker which was played earlier in the day.
The battle of stars as it was called was a crucial encounter for both teams who sought their first win in the championship.
It was Remo Stars who got the first goal in the 12th minute from Samuel Anakwe's flicking shot to Sodiq Ismail's cross.
But while Remo Stars thought they could nick the maximum points, Sunshine Stars restored parity in the 46th minute through Lucky Gyan to keep the Sky Blue Stars waiting for their first win.
The game
The derby game as expected started with so much energy and in less than a minute, Ogunrinde's free kick went directly into the waiting hands of goalkeeper Mustapha Lawal.
A minute later, Remo Stars had another moment to attack after Samuel Anakwe intercepted Achi Nnaemaka and then passed to Philip Odubia whose cross was parried to a throw-in by Imo Ikemdinachi.
In the fifth minute, Mafeng Pam's shot went sideways and three minutes later, Philip Odubia's attempt to Samuel Anakwe's cross was ruled offside.
