Phoenix players shining for New Zealand at U-20 World Cup

Wellington Phoenix players have scored four goals between them across New Zealand's first two games at the U-20 World Cup in Poland.

The Kiwis are currently top of Group C after a 5-0 win over Honduras was followed up with a 2-0 victory against Norway.

New Zealand's side has an unsurprisingly strong Phoenix presence with five players in their most recent starting eleven with ties to the A-League club.

Nix trio Ben Waine, Sarpreet Singh and Gianni Stensness have all got their name on the score sheet so far at the tournament with the latter scoring a stunner on Tuesday morning (AEST).
