This was the first time that Panathinaikos became a ... Super Champion. Being the Champion, the team was called to face Aris, the winner of the Cup, in Faliron.
The peculiarity of that match was that the Greek Football Federation allowed the teams to realize up to seven substitutions, as it happened in friendly matches! It was also astonishing that the scorer for Aris was a former Panathinaikos’ player.
Panathinaikos wins his second trophy, participating as a Cup winner, at that time, defeating Larissa FC, who was that season's Champion.
For the “Greens” a new comer makes the difference: Danish international player Klaus Nilsen, not only scores first, but also “guarantees” the victory for his team!
One more Cup for Panathinaikos in that competition, which was also a revenge for the defeat from AEK at the final of that same competition, four years ago.
The winner was determined, thanks to Dimitris Saravakos’ goal. He scored following a foul straight into Ilias Atmatzidis’ nets. A new initiative introduced by Greek Football Federation was the match disputed between the veterans of both teams, before the final’s kick off.
Panathinaikos was once again the undeniable protagonist of this match, as the final score showed! AEK was unable to react after the first half.
Further to the three goals scored, the team coached by Juan Ramon Rocha, had also a ball to the post, by Krzysztof Warzycha, at the 74th minute of the game!
