Olympiakos win title after rivals' appeal fails

Panathinaikos have been docked three points and Olympiakos awarded a 3-0 win following the events at the March 18 match, meaning 10 points now separate the two clubs with three matches remaining, the Hellenic Football Federation (HFF) said.

"The HFF has accepted the punishment handed down by the Super League," it declared in a statement.

Olympiakos led the standings by four points from Panathinaikos before Wednesday's hearing rubber-stamped the punishment handed out to Panathinaikos on March 23rd and confirmed the Piraeus side had won their 39th league title.

The club had already been in trouble with the Super League's disciplinary committee this season for crowd violence and were forced to play one match behind closed doors earlier this month.
