Indianapolis, IN (September 27, 2014) - A sell-out crowd of 10,285 people witnessed the Carolina RailHawks (Fall Season: 6W-1T-6L, 19pts) 1-0 victory over Indy Eleven (Fall Season: 3W-3T-7L, 12pts) on Saturday Night at Michael A. Carroll Stadium in Downtown Indianapolis

"It was a very important win for us," said RailHawks Head Coach Colin Clarke. "We had great concentration and were good in the final third. We opened them up a little bit in the first half with good opportunities to go one-on-one with the goalkeeper. After all that, I'm delighted to get the three points and a clean sheet. I couldn't be happier."

Despite creating multiple opportunities in the first-half, the RailHawks weren't able to capitalized and would go into half-time scoreless

In the 53rd minute, RailHawks midfielder Nazmi Albadawi scored his third goal of the season after his shot went passed Indy Eleven's goalkeeper Kristian Nicht.

Saturday's victory over Indy Eleven keeps the RailHawks alone in fourth place of the NASL Combined Standings (10W-3T-9L, 33pts), which would earn the team a spot in The Championship Semi-Finals.
