Farkhunda Muhtaj scored in the 48^th minute to earn a point for the York University Lions women's soccer team in a 1-1 draw with the Windsor Lancers in Windsor, Ont., on Saturday evening.
 
In a rematch of last year's OUA quarter-final, which Windsor won in penalty kicks, the two squads played another even contest. The Lions had eight shots on goal and the Lancers nine, with York goalkeeper Tamara Orlando and her counterpart at Windsor, Krystin Lawrence, both standing tall to make seven and eight saves, respectively.
 
The Lancers got on the board first in the 26^th minute when Giulia Barile scored her first of the season to give the home team a 1-0 advantage. They carried that through the rest of the first half, but the Lions got on the board early in the second when Muhtaj scored in the 48^th minute.
 
The Lancers had two more shots on goal right before the final whistle, but Orlando turned them both away.
 
The Lions are now 0-1-1 on the season after opening weekend, while the Lancers recorded their second tie to begin the year and have two points.
 
The Lions will now return home for their opener at Alumni Field on Wednesday night against the Guelph Gryphons beginning at 6pm.
