Onnereds Women held their nerve against Drott Halmstad in the Swedish Cup, closing out a 31-22 victory at home on Wednesday evening.
To be fair, the result tracked with expectations. Onnereds sat top of the table with six points from three wins, while Drott had settled into third with just two points from a win and two draws.
By then, Onnereds had extended their perfect start to the campaign. Drott's recent form suggested they'd been competitive — their last five matches showed they could hang with better sides — but this one didn't go their way.
The gap in the standings widened to four points. Onnereds kept their unbeaten run alive, while Drott's draw-heavy pattern continued.
