Battle at the Bay
Indy Eleven battled the only undefeated team in the USL Championship to the final whistle in a 1-0 setback at the Tampa Bay Rowdies on Saturday. That snapped the Boys in Blue’s five-match unbeaten streak dating back to the season opener on March 8.
Midfielder Cam Lindley’s free kick from long range to the far post in the final minute of second half stoppage time was headed by forward Bruno Rendon toward the near post, but Rowdies keeper Jahmali Waite tipped it wide with his right hand to keep the Boys in Blue from equalizing.
Indy Eleven created a good scoring opportunity in the 67th minute, with Josh O’Brien making a quick move on the right side to send it forward to Anthony Herbert, who played it forward with a quick touch to Rendon. At the edge of the box, Rendon centered it to Noble Okello whose quick touch went just wide of the near post.
Lindley and Rendon keyed the attack with three chances created in the match, while five different Boys in Blue players had two shots in the match–Jack Blake, Paco Craig, O’Brien, Okello, and Rendon.
Indy Eleven goalkeeper Eric Dick made a key save in the 12th minute, deflecting Karsen Henderlong’s shot from just outside the six over the crossbar with a reflex stop with his right hand.
