Nissa saw off Never 32-17 in Prodivizion 2 on Friday evening. The hosts had already picked up their first point of the campaign and took full advantage of a visitor who had not managed a single victory from five outings. The gap between the two sides was never really in doubt once the opening exchanges settled.
By then the pattern was clear enough. Nissa kept knocking on the door and never got going into a rhythm that could hold the tie in their own hands. The away side felt the pressure from the first whistle and weathered the storm only briefly, conceding goals at regular intervals without being able to respond.
And here's the thing — the prediction of a home win at 69% confidence was never far-fetched. When one side has a win under their belt and the other has not, the difference shows in games like this. Nissa knew what they were doing and punished them for every hesitation.
Both teams were already near the foot of the table, but the standings carry weight when the gap between them opens like this. Nissa now have six points from five matches while Never remain on four with no wins and no draws. The hosts tightened things up when it mattered and came away with a result that keeps them in the hunt.
