Olympiacos have once again asserted their domestic dominance, clinching their 39th Greek championship title with a 3–0 sweep over Vouliagmeni in the best-of-five playoff finals.
The decisive third match, held at Papastrateio, was a high-octane spectacle that saw Olympiacos triumph 18–14, securing yet another domestic double after their Greek Cup victory earlier in the season—marking their 23rd double crown.
The match was evenly contested in the first half. Olympiacos jumped ahead 2–0, but Vouliagmeni, led by Dimitrios Chatzis, responded strongly to level at 2–2. The teams continued to trade goals, with Vouliagmeni briefly taking the lead at 6–5 midway through the second quarter. However, Olympiacos regained control, and the sides were tied 7–7 at the break.
After halftime, Olympiacos pulled away. A dominant third period saw the hosts build a commanding lead, entering the final quarter 13–9 ahead. With four minutes remaining, the margin ballooned to six goals (16–10), effectively ending the contest despite a late push from Vouliagmeni.
The offensive display was headlined by two standout performances: Ioannis Fountoulis, the Olympiacos veteran, scored a remarkable seven goals, matching Dimitrios Chatzis, who also netted seven for Vouliagmeni.
