TORONTO — Canada had to settle for a 1-1 draw with Mexico on Tuesday in a physical finale of a two-game women's friendly soccer series.
The Canadians blanked Mexico 2-0 on Saturday in Montreal in a game where the home side took its time reaching top gear. There was a nasty moment late in the game when Mexico's Karen Luna bodied Jordyn Huitema, who did not have the ball, to the ground in front of the Canadian bench. Luna was booked on the play but deserved to see red.
The Montreal lineup was closer to what one would expect at next month's Paris Olympics. Goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan, defender Vanessa Gilles, midfielder Julia Grosso and forwards Adriana Leon and Olivia Smith dropped to the bench Tuesday.
