    The Wellington Phoenix will remain true to their DNA in this evening's contest against the Central Coast Mariners in Gosford

    The Wellington Phoenix will remain true to their DNA in this evening's contest against the Central Coast Mariners in Gosford


    The Nix were punished for poor passing among the goalkeeper and defenders in the A-League derby loss to Auckland FC in the Capital last weekend.

    But coach Giancarlo Italiano hates long-ball and says they're committed to playing out from the back.



    Kick-off across the ditch is at six o'clock .
