A-League Pre-Season Football
Wellington Phoenix v Brisbane Roar
Forsyth Barr Stadium. Saturday 20 August 2011
Wellington Phoenix striker Maceo Rigters leaves the Brisbane Roar defenders in his wake during their A-League pre-season football match played at the Forsyth Barr Stadium this evening.
A crowd of over 15,000 made sure this was going to be the biggest ever football event in Dunedin with the loyal Phoenix supporters, the Yellow Army, in full voice on the West Stand resplendent in their yellow and black supporters attire and face paint. The noise from the yellow fever area of the stand was incredible as fans stamped their feet on the metal plate flooring and clapped their hands as they sang their favourite Phoenix supporter's chants. For the record the Brisbane Roar won easily 5-1 but who cares!
