It was a one-sided affair in the National League A on Friday evening when Zürich Women visited Aarau and ran out 8-0 winners in Regular Season round three. The visitors, already top of the table after two wins, made no mistake against a home side that had lost both of their opening fixtures.
The visitors struck first in the twenty-second minute, catching Aarau off guard and taking a lead they would never relinquish. By the time half-hour mark approached, the hosts were still searching for rhythm. Zürich made it two before the interval, capitalising on a moment of indiscipline to extend their advantage.
The second half brought no reprieve for the hosts. Zürich opened the scoring in the second period at sixty-two minutes, and then proceeded to punish Aarau from open play. The home side could not hold their shape, and the visitors took advantage at sixty-six and sixty-nine minutes to make it four.
There was no let-up as the match progressed. Zürich added three more goals in quick succession at seventy-two, seventy-five and seventy-seven minutes, turning a comfortable win into a comprehensive statement. Aarau had no answers, and the visitors saw the game out with authority.
The result leaves Zürich second on six points from two games, while Aarau remain rooted to tenth place with zero points from two defeats. The home side's recent form offers little comfort — losses to Grasshopper and Servette-Chénans have been followed by this latest humiliation.
