    Change for the better for the Wellington Phoenix since their first tussle with Western United


    The 'Nix have beaten the A-League's newcomers, who are coached by former mentor Mark Rudan 3-1 in West Melbourne, extending their unbeaten run to seven games.

    The Phoenix lost 1-nil to Western United to open the season.

    Coach Ufuk Talay says their unbeaten streak has instilled plenty of belief.



    Meanwhile, Newcastle and Brisbane have drawn 1-all.
