Central Coast beat Newcastle

6:06 am on 9 February 2010

The Wellington Phoenix push for a top four finish in football's A-League has been helped a bit by Central Coast beating Newcastle 3-nil last night.

A win for Newcastle would have pushed them into contention for a home semi-final along with the Phoenix.

However Central Coast will be boyed by the win and give them confidence for Friday night's final round match in Wellington... where the Phoenix will probably need to win to make the top four and claim a home play-off match.
