U.S. Women Draw with Canada in Friendly

U.S. Women’s National Team forward Sydney Leroux scored a clutch 78th-minute equalizer and the USA earned a 1-1 draw against Canada at Investors Group Field, one of six venues for the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Leroux scored her team-leading sixth goal of 2014 and the 30th tally of her WNT career. She has scored in three straight matches against Canada.

The USA and Canada played in front of 28,255 spectators, the second-largest crowd for a women’s international friendly in Canada.

With the draw, the USA extended its unbeaten streak against Canada to 30 games (25-0-5). The unbeaten streak started in 2001, with the U.S. WNT’s last loss to Canada coming in the opener of that year’s Algarve Cup on March 11 in Lagos, Portugal.
