The Wellington Phoenix have twice come from behind but ultimately emerged empty-handed in their latest A-League encounter, beaten 3-2 by high-flying Melbourne City at WIN Stadium in Wollongong.
Wellington played their part in a thrilling match with foreign attackers Tomer Hemed and Ulises Davila scoring, but goalkeeper Oliver Sail was just as important, making superb saves just moments before each of his side s goals, as well as producing several other key stops as the Phoenix soaked up considerable City pressure.
