The Light Blues were unable to find a winner, but Murphy’s performance was enough for Sutton to include him in his Team of the Week.
Meanwhile, there were three Celtic players in the side. The Hoops moved themselves 12 points clear of Rangers as they won 3-0 over bottom side Ross County at Parkhead.
