AMO HK moved to the top of the Swedish Cup table with a convincing 35-25 win over Skaneala on Friday evening. The visitors had already shown they could beat anyone, but this performance carried a different kind of authority. They didn't just win — they controlled the tempo from the opening whistle.
Skaneala had started the campaign with two draws and a win, sitting third on two points. To be fair, they hadn't lost anything. But against a side that had won every game they'd played, the gap in quality showed quickly. And here's the thing — it showed in the first half.
The visitors built their lead gradually, never letting the hosts settle into any rhythm. Skaneala's recent results against Torslunda and Enköping suggested they were competitive, but this was a different level entirely. AMO HK's three wins in three matches told you what was coming, and the scoreline confirmed it.
We'd called for the away side to win, and the result backed that up — though the margin was wider than most would have expected. By then, the visitors had already proven they belonged at the top. The 25-35 scoreline wasn't a fluke; it was a statement.
Skaneala's two draws had looked solid on paper, but facing perfection has a way of exposing cracks. AMO HK didn't need to chase the game — they played with the confidence of people who knew what they were doing. The visitors' recent form, including wins over Linköping, made this result feel inevitable.
Three wins from three games puts AMO HK clear at the summit. Skaneala remain unbeaten, but after this, their two draws might not look quite so impressive. The table tells the story — six points versus two, and the difference was visible on the court.
