    Auckland FC are Mount Smarting after a second home football loss to Newcastle

    Auckland FC are Mount Smarting after a second home football loss to Newcastle


    The Black Knights have suffered four defeat at home in their fledgling history... two have been to the Jets in the last month, including yesterday's 3-1 result.

    The visitors were reduced to 10 men in the 21st minute...but hosts left back Francis de Vries says the Jets still flew.



    Auckland FC still top the A-League ladder for now.
