    Wellington Phoenix coach Ufuk Talay believes the sport of football is on the rise in New Zealand

    Wellington Phoenix coach Ufuk Talay believes the sport of football is on the rise in New Zealand


    A raucous 15,245-strong crowd flocked to a rainy Eden Park to cheer on the Kiwi side's 1-nil win over Western Sydney.

    The Phoenix sit comfortably in fourth position on the A-League ladder with three round robin games to go.

    Talay says with the World Cup later this year, sport's in great shape.
