Most Memorable Match Played In
The epic NZFC clash against Waitakere United in 2006 after we had just arrived back from the Club World Cup in Japan. We found ourselves 0-3 down at half-time and staged a remarkable comeback to win 4-3 in the 99th minute. An astonishing 19 yellow and red cards were dished out in this memorable match!

Best Goal Scored
The 99th minute winner against Waitakere United in 2006. I flicked on a long goal-kick from Ross Nicholson with my head past an advancing Michael Utting and Kiwitea Street erupted!
