Olympiacos remained in the hunt for second place in the first group of the Champions League, winning 10-7 against Yidran for the twelfth game.
The “red and white” are in second place and are waiting for Pro Reco’s win over Radnicki to stay there.
At the same time, they gave a “gift” to Vouliagmeni, who was left alone in fourth place in the standings and took the lead in qualifying for the Final-8.
It was Yadran who opened the scoring. Olympiacos responded with a goal by Vamos, had missed a penalty with Papanastasiou, while Fundoulis gave them the lead. Peikovic equalized for Yadran, with Vamos (two goals), Gennidounia and Bouslie going on a four-goal run to make it 6-2.
With two goals by Bukic, the guests reduced to 6-4, with Mourikis again sending Olympiacos to +3 (7-4) at the beginning of the third period. Kragić for the Croats and Gillas for the “red and white” made it 8-5, while Bukić again reduced the score to two goals for Jadran (8-4).
The tension rose in the fourth eight minutes, with Vamos scoring his fourth personal goal to make it 9-6. The “red and whites” protested a penalty awarded in favor of the Croats, who reduced it to 9-7 and pressed to get back into the game. A minute before the final, Fundoulis cut her lead, making the final 10-7.
