Wellington Phoenix have survived a nail-biting finish to claim their first win of the new A-League Men season. Goalkeeper Alex Paulsen was the hero for the second week in a row, pulling off a dramatic penalty save in the 87th minute as the Phoenix clung on to beat Perth Glory 2-1 at Sky Stadium on Saturday. Paulsen making his home debut guessed the right way and saved Socceroos striker Adam Taggart’s shot down low to his right. He was immediately swarmed by teammates. The 21-year-old’s heroics saved the Phoenix’s blushes after left-back Lukas Kelly-Heald needlessly handled a Trent Ostler cross before it crossed the byline and conceded a penalty following VAR intervention. There was some debate over whether the ball had crossed the line before it made contact with Kelly-Heald’s hand, but Paulsen bailed his teammate out by producing one of the saves of his career.“Never in doubt,” Phoenix coach Giancarlo Italiano joked after the tense finish.
