Töreboda Handboll and Onnereds played to a 39:39 draw in the Swedish Cup on Monday. The result was a surprise given the attacking intent of both sides. Both teams remain level on points after three games each.
Before kickoff, Töreboda sat second in the table with four points from two wins and a draw. Onnereds were third, also on four points with an identical record. By then, the gap had narrowed to nothing after a hard-fought contest.
The home side had shown consistency in recent outings, winning two of their last five matches. They drew against HK Trollhättan away on March 14th before losing to Lugi. Onnereds struggled slightly more, losing three of their last five games including defeats to IK Sävehov and Alingsås.
What this means for the standings is unclear. The high line was picked apart by both attacks throughout the match. Neither team could find a way through to take all three points, and the draw leaves both sides searching for answers.
