Boysnice took their first points of the Extraliga season into a comfortable 37:27 victory over HK Topolčany on Saturday evening. The result keeps the hosts top of the table after two games, while the visitors remain winless at the bottom.
Boysnice started brightly and never looked back. They scored early and extended their lead through the opening period. Topolčany struggled to find any rhythm against a well-drilled home side.
The visitors had their chances in the middle section but failed to convert. To be fair, Boysnice's defence was tight and their goalkeeper made several key stops. The home side never got out of second gear.
The prediction of a home victory looked sound from the start. We gave Boysnice a 66 per cent chance of winning and the result proved that assessment correct. They played the match with control from the opening whistle.
Boysnice's record now stands at two wins from two matches, four points clear of anyone else. Topolčany remain on zero points after two draws, though neither result has given them confidence.
The visitors have lost form since their early-season draws. Their last five matches show a mixed bag of results, with several defeats against lower-ranked opposition.
Boysnice's recent record speaks for itself. They beat Modra 42:29 and Glochovce 36:32 in their last two league games before this fixture. The attack is clicking and the defence is solid.
The gap between the two sides was clear from the final whistle. Boysnice now hold a three-point advantage over their nearest challengers as the season gets underway.
