AEK Larnaca wins first futsal cup title against Apollon

On March 5, 2026, AEK Larnaca secured its first-ever futsal cup title by defeating Apollon 5-4 after extra time at the Tassos Papadopoulos-Eleftheria arena. The regular time concluded in a 3-3 draw. Christos Stylianou scored four goals for AEK and Iakovou added one, while Apollon’s goals were provided by Nikolas Andreou, who scored twice, along with P. Andreou and Rifki. Following the victory, the AEK futsal team held a celebration lap with the trophy at the AEK Arena on March 6, 2026, before a football match against Akritas. Apollon’s management issued a formal statement expressing strong dissatisfaction with the officiating, specifically citing a missed penalty claim in the semifinal against APOEL and a disputed sixth foul during the final. AEK futsal manager Theodoros Antoniou expressed hope that this success might persuade club president Andros Karapatakis to remain in his administrative role. The award ceremony was conducted by Christophoros Florou, a member of the CFA Executive Committee.
