They were not three separate sports, because they all were governed by one federation — FINA. Water Polo discipline consisted of one event: men's team. In the preliminary round 12 teams were divided into three groups. Two best teams from each group (shaded ones) advanced to Group A of the final round to determine places 1 through 6. The rest of teams played in Group B of the final round to determine places 7 through 12.{{Cite HistoFINA wp |page=mog |format=dmy }}{{cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/1980/WAP/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200417071142/https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/1980/WAP/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=17 April 2020 |title=Water Polo at the 1980 Moscow Summer Games |work=Sports Reference |access-date=6 December 2019}}
