All Whites striker Shane Smeltz is back in the goals just a week out from the World Cup football qualifier against Bahrain.
Smeltz' 36th-minute header has given Gold Coast United a one-nil win over Sydney FC in the A-League.
It is his 11th goal of the season, but his first in three matches.
Meanwhile the Central Coast Mariners have stunned defending champions Melbourne Victory four-nil.
