The result gives the Orange and Blue its fourth win in five matches away from home in 2018 and vaulted them to the top of the Eastern Conference standings.<\/p>\n<h1>Early Second Half Goal Gives FC Cincinnati Second Straight Win in &#8220;Battle of I-74&#8221;<\/h1>\n<p>The visitors opened the scoring fairly early. In the seventh minute, Kenney Walker continued his red-hot form in converting a penalty to put Cincy up 1-0. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/topeleven\/status\/990559865444630528\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Walker had a Sportscenter Top 10 moment<\/a> in his team&#8217;s previous outing. The 29-year-old rocketed a shot from 50+ yards out in their 3-0 win over the Ottawa Fury last Saturday. The tally also gave him three goals in the previous three contests.<\/p>\n<p>It didn&#8217;t take long for Indy to respond. 17 minutes later, forward Jack McInerney took advantage of a poor back pass and equalized for the Boys in Blue. After FC Cincy goalkeeper Spencer Richey saved his initial\u00a0shot, he collected the rebound and put it past him to make it 1-1.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Another look at Indy&#39;s first goal.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JackMcInerney9?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@JackMcInerney9<\/a> is good at scoring \ud83d\udc40\ud83e\udd45<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/INDvCIN?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#INDvCIN<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tJaz9aJR1n\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/tJaz9aJR1n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Indy Eleven (@IndyEleven) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IndyEleven\/status\/991826520904749056?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">May 2, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Indy were the beneficiaries of a penalty call of their own in the 30th minute. After referee Marcos de Oliveira pointed to the spot, Ayoze Garc\u00eda stepped up to take the kick. The 32-year-old Spaniard then blasted it past Richey to give the home side the lead.<\/p>\n<p>But Cincy then demonstrated their poise on the road. In the 41st minute, forward Jimmy McGlaughlin collected a wonderfully placed through ball from Bone and hit it on the half volley past goalkeeper Owain Fon Williams to make Indy&#8217;s lead short-lived.<\/p>\n<p>Then Bone went from provider to\u00a0goal-scorer and in so doing sealed three points for his team. The former Chicago Fire draftee received a short pass from Michael Lahoud who quickly won possession off a poorly cleared ball. Bone then teed off from the top of the arc and beat Williams to his right. The\u00a0tally was his second of the year which already equals a single-season career-high for him in USL play.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">REPLAY: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MikeLahoud?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@MikeLahoud<\/a> gets the assist as he picks off an Indy clearance and finds <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CorbenBone?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@CorbenBone<\/a> who places nicely from the top of the 18 to put us back on top!<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/JoinTheMarch?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#JoinTheMarch<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/INDvCIN?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#INDvCIN<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fjP04h9VZq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/fjP04h9VZq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; FC Cincinnati (@fccincinnati) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/fccincinnati\/status\/991836087306899456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">May 3, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Both sides\u00a0are back in action this coming Saturday.
