Fiji born star striker Roy Krishna made a memorable start for the Wellington Phoenix scoring his first goal in the A-League following a 2 all draw against the Melbourne Hearts.

Krishna scored the first goal when he took the ball from the halfway mark dribbling past two defenders to score.

Krishna, who was given his first start for the club during last weekend's 1-1 draw with the Perth Glory, looked lively throughout the contest and his maiden A-League goal would have given him a huge dose of confidence.

The Fijian international has been impressive recently and was a constant threat to the Heart’s defence.

Wellington Phoenix remains three points adrift of a finals berth in eighth place with four rounds left.
