    Wellington Phoenix coach Ufuk Talay is grateful he still has Liberato Cacace at his disposal

    Wellington Phoenix coach Ufuk Talay is grateful he still has Liberato Cacace at his disposal


    The defender scored during last night's 2-nil A-League football win over Western United.

    Talay says he was nervous they might not keep Cacace during the January transfer window.



    The Wellington Phoenix are second on the competition ladder, level on points with second placed Melbourne City.
