    Wellington Phoenix coach Giancarlo Italiano has accepted that refining the team's much talked about defensive high line will take time

    Wellington Phoenix coach Giancarlo Italiano has accepted that refining the team's much talked about defensive high line will take time


    It follows their 2-1 A-League Kiwi derby loss to Auckland FC at home, that saw the Black Knights score 28 seconds into the game after exposing Wellington's tactic.

    Italiano says changing personnel has disrupted their gameplan.
