Fresh from helping Newcastle to a 3-1 win over Brisbane that brought their first winning hat-trick since 2018, Kota Mizunuma has vowed to take his game to the "next level" as the Jets pursue an unlikely A-League Men finals berth.
After providing three assists in his first four games since arriving from Yokohama F Marinos, Mizunuma grabbed his first goal in Jets colours in the 21st minute on Friday evening at McDonald Jones Stadium, ending a slick passage in which the hosts sliced across the Roar's penalty area.
