Memphis started out the match on the front foot with their first big chance coming in the fourth minute with Luiz Fernando hitting the crossbar and Leston Paul just missing on his shot after a Phillip Goodrum interception.

Indy Eleven would strike quickly on the counter attack with the ball falling to the feet of Solomon Asante, who put his shot past Trey Muse to give Indy the lead in the eighth minute.

Buckmaster notched his fourth assist of the season on the play.
