That's all we've got time for on Tribe, I'm afraid. Until next time, this is James Messenger saying goodbye!
An assured performance on the road from Wellington Phoenix, who maintain their unbeaten start to the new A-League season thanks to goals either side of half-time from Scott Wootton and Tim Payne. Giancarlo Italiano's men were full value for the points, having repelled the threat and restricted their hosts to very little in front of goal, while being ruthlessly efficient at the other end. Two headers proved to be the undoing of Perth, who start the season with disappointing back-to-back defeats. They'll have plenty to ponder after the opening two weeks, with a trip to unbeaten starters Central Coast Mariners to come next. As for Wellington, they pick up their first three points of the season and rise to second, level on points with Melbourne Victory after their win earlier today.
Wellington Phoenix win the distance derby!
90+1'
GOOD CHANCE! Last chance saloon now for the hosts. Following up on a deep cross from the right, the ball is pulled back from the byline towards Gomulka. With time and space to get the shot off inside the box, he gets horribly under the ball and sends it looping a long way over the bar.
Three additional minutes to come...

Late minutes for Corban Piper as he comes on for his A-League debut, in place of Kosta Barbarouses.

From the right touchline, Gomulka floats a free-kick towards the far post. Oluwayemi does superbly to claim the ball under real pressure, and he has a few words to say to the newly-introduced Lisolajski, who tried to close down the Wellington goalkeeper.
