before Parker forced the ball to Ilan, who found himself clean through on the keeper with an excellent chance to put West Ham ahead but Fulop was quickly off his line to block the shot.
Sylvinho jinked his way past two defenders and into the box but Manuel Da Costa, one of West Ham's most improved players this season, blocked his path.
Santa Cruz rifled a shot over the bar before Pablo Zabaleta's dangerous run into the box was also blocked by Da Costa.
Tevez received a standing ovation from the West Ham supporters when he came on for Santa Cruz with 17 minutes remaining.
The Argentina striker almost marked his return with a goal but his cute attempt to lift the ball over Green came down on the roof of the net.
But the game had lost its spark and both sides rounded off their seasons with a point.
