The 1983 Greek Cup final was the 39rd final of the Greek Cup. The match took place on 29 June 1983 at the Olympic Stadium. The contesting teams were AEK Athens and PAOK. It was AEK Athens' twelfth Greek Cup final in their 59 years of existence and PAOK's twelfth Greek Cup final in their 57-year history.[1] The match was marked by terrible incidents, caused by PAOK fans before, during and after the match causing a lot of damages on and off the stadium. The director of the stadium, Vangelis Savramis, tried to cancel the match, something that was not possible and at the board was written that PAOK is charged with ₯100,000,000. The General Secretary of Sports, Kimonas Koulouris asked for the income to be blocked in order to cover the damages, which reached ₯5,000,000, while he stated that the stadium would never be given for any Greek club.[2][3]
