Grasshoppers Women — Zwolle Women: 73:58, WBL Women

Grasshoppers Women secured another victory in the WBL, beating Zwolle Women 73:58 at home on Friday evening. The result keeps them top of the table after 27 games, with only two defeats to their name. Zwolle remain in tenth place with four wins from the same number of outings.

The home side controlled proceedings from the opening whistle, building momentum through consistent offensive execution. They didn't need to roll the dice when they had the advantage — simply worked the ball and let the defense respond. By then, the gap had widened beyond comfortable range.

We had called for a home victory with 84 per cent confidence before the match, and the result confirmed that assessment. The difference wasn't dramatic in any single moment, but accumulated across the full contest. To be fair, Zwolle showed flashes of resistance but couldn't sustain them.

The visitors' recent form tells its own story — three losses in their last four fixtures, including a heavy defeat away to Grasshoppers earlier this season. They had nothing to do all evening when it mattered most, and the scoreboard reflected that reality.

Grasshoppers now sit on 50 points, two ahead of their nearest challengers. The clean-sheet run came to an end, but in a different context — this time they were the ones delivering the result. The gap at the top continues to grow.
