Nathan Burns scored the winner as Wellington Phoenix stopped Melbourne Victory going top of the A-League with a 3-2 win.
Victory would have gone ahead of Perth on goal difference with a win, and they were on their way when Scott Galloway (34) put them ahead.
Roly Bonevacia levelled (42) but Kosta Barbarouses restored the home side's lead nine minutes after the break.
But Michael Boxall equalised (68) and then Burns won it with 13 minutes left.
