With another impressive performance, this time at the Nea Smyrni swimming pool, Panathinaikos secured its second victory in the men's A1 water polo championship. Dimitris Mazis' team defeated Panionios 15-6 in the 2nd round of Group A, starting the season with a perfect record of 2 wins out of 2 matches.

According to the match report: At 1:43 before the end of the third quarter, with the score at 5-11, Giannis Papakos was shown a red card and was unable to be replaced, leaving Panathinaikos to take a penalty shot and play with one player more for four minutes.
