Auckland FC defender Dan Hall admits it's been frustrating that the side have struggled to keep the ball out of their net this season. 

The Black Knights have only managed four clean sheets during the current A-League campaign and have conceded six goals in their last four games. 

Hall believes if his reigning minor premiers can improve their defence, it will help their attack. 

He told D’Arcy Waldegrave that as a defender, you pride yourself on clean sheets, which haven’t been there as much as last season.  

“So that’s obviously something to work on.” 

Auckland FC host the Central Coast Mariners at Mount Smart from 5pm.
