    The one-cap All Whites midfielder played the full 90 minutes in Tuesday's scoreless draw with the second-placed champions, the Central Coast Mariners - despite being on limited minutes since an ankle injury left him unable to train for several weeks.

    Midfielders Nicholas Pennington and Mohamed Al-Taay are also due back from injuries, ahead of today's kickoff at 5:30pm in Wellington.
