The case from the top is tough. In a short time Kristianstad has gone from dominating Swedish handball to housing in the middle of the handball league.
Tonight's match against Skövde became the team's third loss in four matches and right now the big club is in a great jetty.
Jack Thurin and Richard Hanisch led the way when the away team Skövde came up early in a comfortable lead that held all the way to a win 18-23. But Hanisch does not believe that Kristianstad's beautiful form will last forever.
- They are building new, with new coaches and game systems and it takes time, they will get a lot better in time, he says to C More.
Skövde has also had a swinging start to the season. Two heavy away wins against series-leading Alingsås and Redbergslid have been mixed with blatant home losses
"We have taken a lot of heavy points this year but lost some at home," says Hanisch, who believes that the defense game will be the key to future victories.
