Canada 1 Ghana 1: Floro plays six debutants in draw

An experimental Canada held Ghana to a 1-1 draw in an international friendly in Washington on Tuesday.

Benito Floro's men had six international debutants in the stalemate at the Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington DC.

The draw extended Canada's unbeaten run to four games ahead of World Cup qualifying in November, while Ghana are undefeated in five ahead of their upcoming African Nations Championship qualifiers against Ivory Coast.

Canada threatened early on and only a double save from Brimah Razak denied Floro's men the lead.

Hoilett's driving run into the area led to the initial stop before Tosaint Ricketts was denied on the rebound.
