Live: Western Sydney Wanderers v Wellington Phoenix: A-League 2013 round 2 7:05pm: Whoa. Few saw that coming but the warning signs were there last week as the Nix pushed the Roar all the way. The Wanderers are two points from two games. Are they in for a difficult second season? A mini crisis? Is all the Socceroos talk surrounding Popovic causing a distration? Well done to the Phoenix who fought and scrapped and did even better than that to earn a very well deserved point. In fact they'll be disappointed they didn't get more after some of the chances they had in the second half. Thanks for joining ove rlice coverage. That concludes round two of the A-League with Brisbane the early pacesetters, the only team with a perfect two-from-two record but it's early days yet. Join us next week for the Sydney derby, with the Sky Blues sitting above the Wanderers on the ladder by a point but smarting after getting thumped last night. Should be a cracker. Good night. 6:50pm: 86 min: This time Durante wins the battle with Juric and the Nix get a goal kick. They'll be happy with a point but have work to do as we enter squeaky bum time. Brockie fashions a cross from nothing in the corner but there are no Nix on the end of it and Covic takes an easy catch. They go up the other end Santalab goes down under Durante's xchallebnge but looked like he was playing for a penalty. No dice. Crown not happy. Well 99% of them. Santalab flattens Muscat off the ball. Square up perhaps? Brockie comes off after a storming performance and Spanish backpacker Albert Riera is on. 6:44pm: 81 min: Juric shows great strenth and pace to force a corner off Durante on what seemed a lost cause. Hersi hits the corner way too deep to be of any effect and the Nix get a frree kick to clear their lines. The Red and Black Bloc are doing the Poznan. Miht be a bit premature. 6:29pm: 65 min: Here they come again through Brockie wide on he left and Topor-Stanley hoofs his low cross clear. It's backs to wall stuff as Brockie keeps menacing down the left flank. Another shot from Hernadez - a dasy cutter this time - but Covic gathers it in. 6:27pm: 64 min: Ifill forces a fingertip save from distance with a low curling shot after great control to bring the ball down. Corner to the Nix. Brockie's near post flick is delected for another coner, taken short. Hernadez hits a curling shot from distance and it almost sneaks in but for Covic's amazing fingertip save to tip the ball onto the bar and it is cleared. It's all Phoenix at the moment ... then Hernandez goes and blasts into Row Z so we can all catch our breath. 5:50pm: 43 min: Juric puts Hersi through one on one with the keeper but he takes one touch too many and Moss is able to block the shot. The Wanderers attack again with Bridge and Juric both contesting a cross, but the deflected header loops harmlessly wide. The Wanderers after a storming start might rue squandering these chances as the Nix grind their way into the game. They're not here just to make up the numbers. Wanderers 1-0 5:44pm: 38 min: Juric was fouled trying to dance through the Nix defence but referee Gillett seems reluctant to blow his whistle at times to let the game flow, admirable in some respects. Polenz has another shot from an angle on the right but it is deflected behind for a corner, taken short, and Hersi, switched to the left, forces a save from Moss low to his right. Durante clears the corner, taken long into the box this time. 5:38pm: 33 min: Hersi puts a low cross into the box but it is cut off after lovely interplay outside the area. Ono could have had a shot there but chose to pass. The Nix countered well through Brockie, who looked to be taken out but no free kick for the visitors - again. Riera comes on for Huysegems, who scored last week against the Roar, as the Nix try to shore up midfield. Bertos puts a dangerous ball a cross the Wanderers' goal but no one is on the end of it. 4:46pm: And the Phoenix team: 1 Glen Moss 7 Leo Bertos 22 Andrew Durante 3 Reece Caira 18 Ben Sigmund 11 Jeremy Brockie 2 Manny Muscat 17 Vince Lia 21 Carlos Hernandez 9 Kenny Cunningham 10 Stijn Huysegems Substitutes 8 Paul Ifill 30 Jacob Spoonley 5 Michael Boxall 13 Albert Riera 25 Jason Hicks 4:44pm: Here's the Wanderers line-up: 1 Ante Covic 6 Jerome Polenz 4 Nikolai Topor-Stanley 5 Michael Beauchamp 3 Adam D'Apuzzo 8 Mateo Poljak 9 Tomi Juric 17 Youssouf Hersi 10 Aaron Mooy 21 Shinji Ono 19 Mark Bridge Substitutes 18 Iacopo La Rocca 20 Jerrad Tyson 11 Brendon Santalab 2 Shannon Cole 7 Labinot Haliti 4:35pm: Shane Brady here with you as the Wanderers hope to welcome their legion of fans back for season two with a win and steal a march on crosstown rivals Sydney FC before their derby next weekend. A very depleted Phoenix side proved a match for Brisbane Roar last week, and were only denied a point by an last gasp goal to the impressive Ivan Franjic. The Roar were purring at home last night against Sydney, who look in all sorts of trouble with their linchpin Alessandro Del Piero injured. On the viewing of the first two rounds, the Roar and Melbourne Victory, despite only two points from two matches, look the benchmarks. Friday night's Adelaide-Victory match was a cracker, just a shame the refereeing didn't live up to the playing standards as the Victory suffered some appallling decisions. Let's see if the Wanderers can click today after a cagey showing the grand final rematch against the Mariners last week. Kick-off at 5pm.
