IN THE A Division of the Women's European Cup Winners' Cup, Ulster side Pegasus began their campaign with a disappointing 1-1 draw against French representatives, Amiens.

Pegasus had enough opportunities in the first half to have won the game comfortably, but looked to be heading for defeat when Carole Vivies scored for the French side from a penalty corner in the 62nd

However, Ireland captain, Jeanette Turner, salvaged a point when she poached the equaliser from a similar situation with two minutes remaining.
