Olympiacos ONEX and Panathinaikos both walked away with important wins, each in their own style, during an action-packed 6th round of the Volley League.
Olympiacos Cruise in Kifisia
Olympiacos looked sharp and confident, beating Kifisia 3–0 (23–25, 23–25, 14–25) at the Zirinio. Aleksandar Atanasijević was the star of the night with 20 points, five aces and strong plays at key moments.
With 10 total aces and zero attacking mistakes in 78 attempts, Olympiacos made the match look easier than it was. The third set was one-way traffic, as they quickly built a big lead and closed out a clean sweep.
Panathinaikos Fight Back in Crete
In Heraklion, Panathinaikos had a tougher road but still came out on top, beating OFI 3–1 (25–22, 16–25, 20–25, 17–25). OFI surprised early with strong serving, steady reception and lots of risk, taking the first set.
But from the second set on, Panathinaikos flipped the script. Their serve caught fire, 14 aces in total, and MVP Rasmus Nielsen led the comeback with 19 points.
