For the fifth time in six SEC games, an Alabama soccer ended in a tie. The Crimson Tide secured a road draw, 1-1, on the road against No. 14 Auburn on Thursday night.

"I’m proud of our team’s effort and fight tonight against a very good Auburn side," Alabama head coach Wes Hart said in a press release. "Once again, we showed we are a tough team to beat. At times this season, we’ve shown the ability to play/compete with just about anyone in the country. We just haven’t been able to do it consistently in a 90-minute game.”

Alabama grabbed the lead in the 52nd minute on a goal from Kate Henderson assisted by Gessica Skorka, but the Tigers answered back to tie the game just seven minutes later on a penalty kick. Alabama is now 7-3-5 (0-1-5 SEC) and will host Texas A&M on Sunday at 6 p.m.
