LAST TIME OUT
PIT 1:3 IND
JULY 26, 2023
Indy Eleven earned a solid three points on the road, taking down USL Championship Eastern Conference leader Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC, 3-1. The loss was the first at home for the Riverhounds in 2023 (7-1-3).
In a first half that was largely dominated by the Eleven in the possession column at 62%-38%, the Boys in Blue’s leading goal scorer Aodhan Quinn scored his first from beyond the spot in 2023 to give him seven this season. The midfielder collected a clearance by the Pittsburgh keeper nearly at half, played it down with his chest, and converted a volley from just past the center circle.
Indy doubled its lead in the 35th minute with a tally that goal scorer Sebastian Guenzatti started himself from half. By way of passes from Younes Boudadi and Solomon Asante, Cam Lindley found himself with the ball on the right flank and played it into Pittsburgh’s 18 to Guenzatti for the score.
The Eleven tacked on a second insurance goal compliments of Harrison Robledo’s first of the season off an assist from Indy assist leader Douglas Martinez.
