NEWS & NOTES

Tonight closes out the four-game Louisville-Indianapolis Proximity Association Football Contest rivalry series for 2020 – at least in regular season play. Indy Eleven 0W-2L-1D 2020 series record began with a 1-1 draw on the Aug. 8 before dropping a 0-1 result at Lynn Family Stadium on Aug. 26 and falling 1-3 on Sept. 5 at Lucas Oil Stadium. While Indiana’s Team has gone a disappointing 2W-6L-4D against Louisville City in all competitions, the series is even at 1W-1L-1D in their USL Championship regular season meetings in the Circle City since 2018.

The Group E lead will again on the line this evening at Lucas Oil Stadium, just like it was 11 days ago – but this time it’s Louisville that holds the advantage heading into the contest. See the group standings back on Page 4, and do the math in your head as far as playoff berth “magic numbers” are concerned with the knowledge that Indy ends its 16-game regular season slate with two of three contests against Saint Louis FC.

Forward Jeremy Rafanello opened his Indy Eleven scoring account in style last Wednesday, scoring the game-winning goal in the second half of the 2-1 triumph over Sporting Kansas City II. The New Jersey native became the tenth different player to tally a goal for Indiana’s Team in the 2020 season.

Earlier in that contest – just six minutes in, to be exact – forward Nick Moon tallied his second of the campaign, making him the first Indy Eleven player not named Tyler Pasher to score since a 4-1 win over on July 29. Moon scored in the 4th minute of that victory against Hartford at Lucas Oil Stadium, giving him possession of the two earliest goals notched by Indy in 2020.
