EVERTON extended their unbeaten league record against Swansea but failed to find the killer touch to take all three points at the Liberty Stadium.
The Toffees carried the greatest threat for much of an entertaining contest which somehow remained goalless despite the amount of clear-cut chances created.
But they were probably relieved to take a point when substitute Kevin Mirallas, who had only been on the pitch for 112 seconds, received a straight red card for a dangerous tackle on Modou Barrow.
Ross Barkley shone throughout but Everton could not take advantage of his excellent approach play, with Romelu Lukaku the biggest culprit in front of goal for the visitors.
Swansea also had their moments to bounce back from last weekend's shock defeat at Watford with Tim Howard saving smartly on a few occasions - but Everton might have had strong claims for a penalty when Ashley Williams appeared to trip Steven Naismith late on.
