Several exciting national derby games were played across Europe over the weekend.

In Hungary, Ferencvaros emerged victorious against Szolnok, scoring a last-second goal, while Vasas avenged a loss in the LEN Euro Cup by beating Honved.

Barceloneta continued its winning streak by defeating Sabadell in the Spanish League, and Barcelona secured a win over Mediterrani after a penalty shootout.

In the Croatian derby in the Regional league, Jug emerged victorious over Jadran Split after a penalty shootout.  Savona beat Telimar in Italy, and Crvena Zvezda emerged victorious in Serbia over Radnicki.

In the middle of the third period, Ferencvaros leveled at 7:7. Still, Szolnok was able to earn a 9:7 advantage before the final quarter. Ferencvaros opened the final period with three goals. Four minutes before the end, Dusan Mandic put the hosts in front for the first time – 10:9 (the fourth of his five goals in the match). In the remaining time, the teams exchanged the goals. Ferencvaros managed to take all points. Szilard Jansik scored a winner in the very last second – 12:11.
