Last year Wellington beat Magenta 2-0 at this stage of the tournament but midfielder Kevin Nemia told OFC TV his team is raring to go against the reigning New Zealand premiers.

"It's our desire to play against Wellington again," Nemia said.

"It's a chance to get our revenge for last year," he said.

"It's good to play the teams from the New Zealand, I think we have the level of skill to play, we will see."

French Polynesia's AS Tefana are playing Auckland City FC, another repeat of last year, in the other semi-final.
