Olympiacos made history by winning the Europa Conference League, becoming the first Greek club to secure a major European trophy. The final, held in Athens at the AEK Arena, saw Olympiacos defeat Fiorentina 1-0 in extra time. Ayoub El Kaabi scored the decisive goal in the 116th minute, bringing his total to 11 goals in European knockout football this season. This was El Kaabi's 33rd goal of the season. The goal was confirmed after a lengthy VAR check. Olympiacos' manager, José Mendilibar, added another European trophy to his accolades after previously winning the UEFA Europa League with Sevilla. This victory marks a significant achievement for Olympiacos and Greek football, while Fiorentina faced heartbreak for the second consecutive year, having lost last year's final to West Ham.
