Indy Eleven (2-3-0, 9) used a set piece to take the lead in the 22nd minute before 7,415 at Carroll Stadium. Nicki Paterson was fouled on the left flank and hooked the subsequent free kick into the goal box where defender Greg Janicki pounced to score past Matt VanOekel.

The Eddies got back into the game in the 27th minute. Sainey Nyassi floated a soft cross that Jake Keegan met with a header that looped high over the head of Indy goalkeeper Jon Busch. The goal was Keegan’s second of the Spring Season.

Indy was seeking its third straight victory, as was FC Edmonton (2-2-2, 8), but neither could find the go-ahead goal late in the game. FC Edmonton is right back at it on Wednesday, facing NASL rival Ottawa Fury FC in the Amway Canadian Championship. The draw leaves Indy as the only team without a loss through Week 6 of the Spring Season.
