    Auckland City have won the men's National Football League title with a dramatic 7-6 penalty shootout win over hosts Wellington Olympic in the final


    Auckland looked destined to win in regulation - before a Wellington equaliser in the 91st minute forced the match to extra time.

    Olympic then took the lead in the 100th minute - only for Auckland to level with the final kick of the game to send the teams to penalties.
