    Frustrations continue for the Wellington Phoenix after their fifth loss in six games in the A-League

    Frustrations continue for the Wellington Phoenix after their fifth loss in six games in the A-League


    The 2-1 home loss to Adelaide United featured an own goal in the seventh minute, before an error from goalkeeper Josh Oluwayemi saw the visitors score a 75th minute game winner.

    Coach Giancarlo Italiano says the nature of the goals conceded doesn't make the loss any easier to accept.



    The Nix remain 10th on the ladder and next face Sydney on Wednesday.
