    High praise for Wellington Phoenix keeper Josh Oluwayemi

    High praise for Wellington Phoenix keeper Josh Oluwayemi


    The Englishman took some time to find his feet at the club, but in recent weeks has produced some world-class saves, including stopping two penalties against Auckland FC last week.

    Coach Giancarlo Italiano says he's happy to see Oluwayemi showing his true skill.



    The Phoenix are in action against the Newcastle Jets this afternoon from 3pm.
