    The Wellington Phoenix are reflecting on their mental strength after shrugging off mind games by Western United

    The Wellington Phoenix are reflecting on their mental strength after shrugging off mind games by Western United


    The A-League table topper's 2-nil win over the Aussie cellar dwellers was delayed for 15 minutes due to a kit clash -- with the visitors wearing their green and black home kits, despite being told prior to kickoff the Phoenix would be in black.

    Nix midfielder Bozhidar Kraev says the team's now strong enough mentally to take such drama in their stride.



    The Nix are five points clear at the top of the table and have a week off before regrouping to face Macarthur in Sydney.
