Wellington Phoenix held by Newcastle Jets as Roy Krishna misses late penalty PHILLIP ROLLOSKY SPORTRoy Krishna denied from the spot as Wellington Phoenix play out 1-1 draw with Newcastle Jets. However, the Phoenix blew a golden opportunity to extend that buffer to 11 points after Roy Krishna failed to convert from the penalty spot, shooting straight down the middle and into the feet of Glen Moss. Although Krishna has found the back of the net 11 times this season, he has a poor record from the penalty spot. Both goalkeepers played key roles in the game, with back-up Phoenix shotstopper Sail making the most of his rare start.
