The Wellington Phoenix have lost to the Central Coast Mariners after a Tiana Fuller wondergoal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the match evenly poised, a moment of brilliance from the teenager condemned the Phoenix to a 1-0 defeat at Woy Woy Oval on the Central Coast.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wellington Phoenix head coach Paul Temple thought his side deserved more from a game which was largely well balanced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt was a pretty even game I thought. There wasn\u2019t too much between the teams,\u201d Temple said post-match. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI thought Mariners started better, we were on the back foot a bit but rode out the wave and organised ourselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe probably had a lot more of the ball in the second half, and certainly played a lot better in terms of what we were offering, but the moment of magic from Fuller ultimately settled the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a pretty stunning goal, which kind of makes it even more disappointing, that something like that stops you from getting a result. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
