LEN Euro League Women - Final:

 

 Olympiacos 11 - 7  CN Sabadell 

 

Second consecutive title for Olympiacos and third overall 

They now have the most Euro League titles of any Greek team, as Glyfada and Vouliagmeni each won only twice. Also revenge for Olympiacos after losing to Sabadell in the 2019 final.

 

21 yo Maria Myriokefalitaki was the hero of the final with 3 goals

Group A in the women's tournament is quite strong, maybe one of the top 3 teams can trade places with Brazil/Kazakhstan/New Zealand in Group C

Wow... Thailand is going to be some next level embarrassment. Arguably no better than 5th best team in Asia?

 

They should do better than Korea though...

Very imbalanced women's draw. I'm not surprised, FINA's procedure for this was quite dumb. I mean Brazil in Pot 2 and Italy in Pot 3, seriously?! Also in addition to Russia, China will also be missing. I didn't notice until now.

 

Both of our teams should have no issues reaching QF, as usual.

I think South Africa women's team will have a decent chance at "qualifying" to the Olympics again

Netherlands and one out of HUN/ITA/CAN will not qualify for the quarterfinal, and FRA or NZL/BRA will. This draw is ridiculous.

Another big absence for China. And Japan declining to send the women's team but not the men's lol, that's even more ridiculous.

What a waste of money to send a team to this. I hope they enjoy the city landmarks at least.

Judith Forca and Elena Ruiz are enough to beat Greece 13-9 with a lot of new players in the team. Spain qualifies to the semifinals of the World League against Hungary.
