Skara Women opened their Swedish Cup campaign with a convincing 32:24 win over Västerås Women on Saturday afternoon. The hosts ran out comfortable winners at home, maintaining their flawless record in the league standings.
The result extends Skara's winning streak following three consecutive league victories. They had previously beaten Västerås 38:26 earlier in August, and this second meeting confirmed their superiority between the two sides.
Västerås arrived in reasonable form having won their last two matches against Eskilstuna GUIF, but could not match Skara's intensity. The visitors had also lost 27:24 to Skövde in their previous league outing before this cup fixture.
Skara Women currently sit top of the table with six points from three games. Their recent results include victories over Karlstad, Skuru and Skövde, showing consistency across different opponents in the early stages of the season.
The eight-goal margin at full time gives Skara momentum heading into their next cup tie. Västerås will need to regroup after their second defeat to the same opposition this month.
