Ferencváros visit Marseille in the men’s water polo Champions League on Wednesday, 11 November. The official Champions League schedule lists a 20:30 start at the Pierre Garsau pool, the same time in Budapest. Spectator tickets are available through the link on the club’s schedule.

Two different tests before Marseille

FTC beat Marseille 13–11 in an October warm-up tournament despite going scoreless in the first quarter. Saturday’s game in Szolnok was also tight early: FTC led 6–5 at half-time, then won the last two quarters 13–2 combined. Dušan Mandić scored three times in Szolnok. Wednesday brings a different test: the French champions at home, with Champions League points on the line. More aquatics coverage.
