Women Top-handball Elite series season started Wednesday in Norway: Oppsal and Byåsen battle it out at Oppsal Arena in Oslo
Posted by African Press International on September 15, 2012
The first game in this season’s elite series Top-handball took place at Oppsal Arena in Oslo. The two teams, Oppsal and Byåsen Women in the elite series were both geared to win but as is always in all competitions, a winner will emerge.
Byåsen has been in the elite series for long now, and for Oppsal who qualified this year to move into the elite series troop were not an easy go-over for Byåsen.
Byåsen won the game by scoring 37 goals to 23 for Oppsal. During the first 8 minutes, Oppsal was strong and even led in points. It was not long, however, before Byåsen stepped in and led the game up to the end.
This was the only game opening in the season on Wednesdaythe 12th September and the other teams will do their part from today Saturday the 15th..
