Wellington Phoenix vs Western Sydney
Wellington Phoenix is aiming for a second victory this month when visited by Western Sydney. They competed in Week 13 of the Australian League, which was broadcast Saturday (11/1) live from the Regional Stadium. Victory will also open up opportunities to rise to the top 3 ranking.
Wellington Phoenix managed to open this month’s campaign with a narrow score over the Central Coast Mariners. They fought Saturday (4/1) with a score of 2-1, even the visitors ‘goal was born from Luke DeVere’s suicide (45 + 1’). These results also helped the host ranked 4th with a collection of 8 numbers, while increasing the unbeaten series since November to 5 wins and 3 draws.
In different places, Western Sydney must admit defeat of Brisbane Roar with a 1-2 position. They had excelled quickly in the 5th minute ‘through the action of Mitchell Duke, but lost focus so Scott Neville (20’) and Brad Inman (61 ‘) managed to change position.
The problem is, the disaster made Western Sydney swallow 6 defeats from the last 9 matches. Therefore, their position continues to sag, now ranking 8 out of a total of 11 participants. This weekend their position could go down again because they always lost during the last two visits to the Regional, each with a score of 3-1 and 2-1. This is an opportunity for Wellington Phoenix to move up one point to the top 3 with a goal difference from Perth Glory.
