БМ Синфин took a narrow victory over Сисне in the Дивизион чести Плата, winning 34-31 on Friday evening. Both sides came into the fixture level on points in the table, each having collected six from their first five matches. The result leaves them still tied but shifts the balance slightly in the visitors' favour.
Сисне started brighter, taking an early lead and camped in the final third for much of the opening period. They had nothing to do all evening in terms of defensive work, but that soon changed as Синфин found their rhythm. By then, the home side had grown frustrated with the visitors' ability to counter quickly.
We had tipped Синфин for victory before kick-off, confidence sitting at 54 per cent. And here's the thing — the visitors showed why we backed them. They switched off at the back at key moments, but their attack never stopped finding space. The home side simply couldn't contain the movement.
The second half brought tighter football, with both teams giving away too many cheap fouls. Сисне pushed forward desperately, but Синфин held firm when it mattered. The visitors turned to the kids when things got tight, and they delivered when called upon.
Both sides finish on six points from five games, with Сисне sitting ninth and Синфин fourth. The gap between them remains minimal, and every game from here on will carry extra weight. The table tells only part of the story.
Синфин now have the deeper squad to draw upon as the season progresses. Сисне must address their defensive frailties quickly if they want to climb. This was a match decided by moments, not dominance.
