This is the first defeat for the Fradi water polo team since 2024.

FTC-Telekom Waterpolo suffered a surprising 12-10 defeat against Marseille in the Champions League group stage, ending their perfect record. The team, led by coach Nyéki Balázs, had previously won the Euro Cup and finished third last season. They started strong, leading 4-1, but Marseille improved and equalized by halftime. A decisive 5-0 run by Marseille shifted the momentum, allowing them to secure the win despite FTC's late efforts to close the gap. Nagy Ádám contributed two goals for Marseille. The next match for FTC is against Steaua Bucuresti on November 17.
