Wellington Phoenix drew 1-1 with Sydney FC, with Kosta Barbarouses scoring after a VAR review, ending their losing streak.

Wellington Phoenix showcased resilience by battling back to secure a 1-1 draw against Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium. Sydney FC struck first, taking the lead within the opening 10 minutes of the match. However, Wellington`s Kosta Barbarouses equalized just before halftime, marking his 101st A-League goal. The goal was initially disallowed for offside but was later confirmed after a Video Assistant Referee (VAR) review.

Despite Sydney FC dominating possession throughout the match, they struggled to penetrate the well-organized Wellington defense. Wellington`s head coach, Giancarlo Italiano, expressed pride in his team`s performance, viewing the draw as a potential turning point following a challenging stretch of four consecutive losses. The result halted their losing streak and provided a much-needed boost ahead of their upcoming match against Western Sydney Wanderers on March 29.

Key contributions came from Wellington`s goalkeeper, Josh Oluwayemi, who made several crucial saves, particularly in the second half, thwarting Sydney`s attempts to regain the lead. The match`s attendance figures and specific standings updates were not disclosed in the reports.
