Eurocup | CN Barcelona seeks to take a giant step against Panathinaikos (11/14, 8:45 PM)
CN Barcelona, the leader of Group D with 9/9, will play the fourth matchday of the men's Eurocup water polo this Thursday (8:45 PM). Andrei Iosep's team will host the Greek team Panathinaikos at Nova Escullera, who is currently in second place with six points. A crucial match to secure passage to the next round.
So far, a flawless performance from the Spanish water polo powerhouse in the second continental competition. Victories against the Greek team in Athens (8-10), Sabac at home (14-9), and the Hungarian team Plus Honved at their home ground (12-5).
On the other hand, Panathinaikos has won their two matches after their initial loss at home against CNB in the first round (11-12 against Plus Honved and 12-5 against Sabac). In the domestic league, CNB has gathered 16 out of 18 possible points, with their only defeat coming at the hands of KEIO Sabadell in a penalty shootout.
