Indy Eleven News Release
Indianapolis - On the eve of the Indianapolis 500, Indy Eleven took an early lead, temporarily let up on the gas, but accelerated in the final half hour to race across the finish line with a 3-1 victory over visiting Lexington SC, extending their unbeaten streak at Michael A. Carroll Stadium to eight games (7-0-1).
The Boys in Blue played a man up for the final 87 minutes of the game and used their personnel advantage to unleash threatening counterattacks on the visitors. While Lexington was able to equalize just after halftime at 1-1, the hosts finished the game dominant and scored two goals in the span of five minutes to take a 3-1 lead with 15 minutes remaining.
Pups at the Pitch Night started with midfielder Cam Lindey becoming the franchise leader in appearances with his 127th in five seasons with the Boys in Blue.
In just the third minute, Lexington defender Javain Brown responded to a hard foul by striking Bruno Rendón in the face, earning himself the fastest red card in the USL Championship this season.
Just ten minutes later, Edward Kizza rolled Rendón through on goal on the right side of the box and Indy Eleven's top scorer on the season (seven goals in all competitions) fired a first-time shot into the bottom left corner of the net to give himself his third consecutive game with a goal and the Boys in Blue a 1-0 lead.
But in the 71st minute with the match tied 1-1, midfielder Jack Blake's cross found the foot of defender Josh O'Brien for the game-winning goal. It is O'Brien's second goal of the season and the 26th career assist for Blake (in addition to 44 goals).
Five minutes later, a header by super-sub Dylan Sing - his second goal of the season - put the game on ice for the Indy Eleven. Captain Aodhan Quinn created the goal with a well-placed cross for his 63rd career assist (T-2nd all-time on the USL Championship list).
Indy Eleven will look to extend their unbeaten streak that dates back to last season on Saturda y, May 30, when they host Eastern Conference opponent Rhode Island FC for Pride Night at Carroll Stadium at 7 p.m.
