He bent Apollon and … Panionios is wearing a scarf for third place

In a match with a lot of intensity, Panionios prevailed 12-11 over Apollon Smyrni in the first match of the 2nd phase of the A1 men’s polo.

The “blue and reds” were found to be ahead 11-8 in the middle of the fourth period, with the hosts equalizing at 11-11 about one and a half minutes before the final, but the Neosmirniotes at the end made it 12-11.

The home team protested strongly against the goal, believing that it did not cross the line.
