Wellington Phoenix’s Pavlovic eager for more

Wellington Phoenix youngster Mirjan Pavlovic is keen for more after experiencing his first taste of A-League action.

The 21-year old came on for the final 30 minutes of the Phoenix’s 1-0 loss to Brisbane Roar on Friday night and is hoping he can build on that and become an integral part of the Wellington makeup.

“It was good to get my first game for the club but it was a bit disappointing we didn’t get the win,” Pavlovic said. “When I came on I felt almost like we had nothing to lose so I tried to get out there and change the game somehow to help the team out. Unfortunately it didn’t come off.

“Hopefully I can get more game-time. I’ve got to be realistic about it and just keep trying to do my best. It’s a long season and as long as I keep doing things well at training and listening to the coaching staff and the experienced players around me I’m sure I’ll get more opportunities down the track.”
