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.

Kadeisha Buchanan opened the scoring for ninth-ranked Canada. Jacqueline Ovalle replied for No. 31 Mexico, which is ranked third in CONCACAF after Canada and the fourth-ranked Americans.

The return leg of the “Summer Send-Off Series” marked the Canadian women’s final game on home soil before heading to Europe to defend their Olympic title at the Paris Games next month.
