Kirchhof claim first win against winless Leverkusen
Kirchhof secured their first victory of the 2. Bundesliga season with a 22:29 win over Bayer Leverkusen Women. The result leaves the hosts winless after two matches, having drawn both so far. To be fair, the visitors had already shown they were difficult to break down.
Leverkusen sit 16th on zero points, while Kirchhof move to 10th place with two points from a win and a draw. The gap is small, but by then, the momentum has shifted away from the home side.
Kirchhof arrived with a poor run of results, including a 23:37 defeat in August. They turned it on to take all three points here, ending their recent slump. The hosts had drawn both games so far, but the visitors proved too strong on this occasion.
The scoreline suggests Kirchhof found a way through when it mattered. Leverkusen failed to convert their chances, while the visitors made them pay.
Kirchhof stay in touch with the middle of the table.
