    The Wellington Phoenix men are taking their final home match of the A-League season to Christchurch

    The Wellington Phoenix men are taking their final home match of the A-League season to Christchurch


    The Nix will host the Western Sydney Wanderers in Addington on Saturday, April 18, with a late afternoon kick-off at 5 o'clock.

    The Phoenix had hoped to play in the city's new CBD stadium, but it's unlikely to be ready in time.

    If the state-of-the-art venue DOES open earlier than scheduled, the match will be moved across town.
