tie score
Neither side leads
A tie score is when competitors have the same number of points, goals, or other measures of success at a given moment in a game or match.
The phrase is somewhat redundant since a tie already implies equal scores, but it's common in sports commentary: The tie score held through overtime.
Also called a tied score or deadlock.
