Olympiacos took a commanding step toward the Greek Cup final, overpowering AEK 6–0 at “G. Karaiskakis” in the first semifinal clash. The “red-and-whites” left their opponents no room for a response and, despite the emphatic scoreline, squandered several additional chances to widen the margin even further.
The Legend took the lead early, with Horta scoring in the 9th minute, before doubling his tally in the 19th minute, and Yaremchuk made it 3–0 in the 22nd minute. Olympiacos maintained their attacking momentum in the second half, with Palma netting a stunning long-range strike in the 47th minute to make it 4–0. Yaremchuk added his second in the 53rd making it 5–0, while El Kaabi sealed the final score at 6–0 in the 78th minute.
