Sydney FC vs Wellington Phoenix Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

Sydney FC faced Wellington Phoenix in the A-League of Australia on March 16. The match ended in a 1-1 deadlock after an evenly contested game.

The scoreline opened on the 8th minute when Adrian Segecic converted the chance, putting Sydney in front. A goal from Kosta Barbarouses followed, bringing the match to a 1-1 conclusion.

The stage is set for another captivating encounter as Sydney and Wellington Phoenix square off once more, 2 months after the previous A-League encounter that concluded in a 0-0 stalemate. In impressive form, Sydney FC has claimed wins against Jeonbuk Motors and Macarthur, stretching their unbeaten streak to eight matches. Their winning form has come with a cost though, as their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last six home matches.

Wellington Phoenix's form, by contrast, has been disappointing, approaching this match after four consecutive defeats to Western United, Melbourne City, Auckland and Melbourne Victory, leaving them without a victory in their last six outings. Their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have allowed goals in seven consecutive away matches.

This A-League clash shines a light on the players who have played crucial roles in creating and converting chances for Sydney FC and Wellington Phoenix in this campaign. Sydney’s attacking options, with Ufuk Talay steering the side, have been bolstered by Joe Lolley and Patryk Klimala, the team’s top scorer, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. With nine goals in A-League, Lolley is Sydney’s top scorer in the league, and is also the team’s top assist provider, with seven key passes leading to goals so far this term. Supporting them are Anas Ouahim, Adrian Segecic and Douglas Costa, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Sydney’s attack.

Meanwhile, Wellington Phoenix’s attacking options, shaped by Giancarlo Italiano’s vision, have been bolstered by Hideki Ishige and Kosta Barbarouses, the team’s top scorer, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. In A-League, Barbarouses has been Wellington Phoenix’s standout scorer with seven goals, while Ishige has been their leading creator in the competition with eight assists. Kazuki Nagasawa, Tim Payne and Scott Wootton have supported the attack well, combining for important goals and assists throughout the campaign.
