2012 Olympic champions and 2016 Olympic silver medallists Croatia are the only team with three wins at the FINA Men's Water Polo World League European tournament 2017, defeating the Netherlands 18-7 (4-1, 5-0, 5-2, 4-4) last night in Eindhoven (NED).
Group B's Croatia with 9 points are followed by Greece in the ranking who have accumulated 6 points so far. The Hellenic team scored 16 goals against 7 for the French in Athens (4-3, 4-1, 5-2, 3-1). The Netherlands and France complete the ranking in this order with 3 and 0 points respectively.
Group A's games were a lot closer as both Germany-Romania and Slovakia-Serbia ended up in ties.
