It was an interesting edition, with the eternal enemies, Panathinaikos and Olympiacos, to contest the final after 11 years. Olympiacos had eliminated "big three of Thessaloniki" ( PAOK, Aris, and Iraklis), while Panathinaikos only one Alpha Ethniki team, AEK Athens, in semi-finals. In the final, that was held in Olympic Stadium, the common home of all three teams of former P.O.K. that year, Panathinaikos achieved an impressive 4β0 [1] victory against their opponent, completing one successful season with the win of the double. [2]
There were nevertheless many unusual events. Cup holders, AEL, were eliminated by Panseraikos in the first round. Panionios were eliminated by Naoussa, as well. PAOK struggled to qualify against Anagennisi Giannitsa, with score 6β5 in penalty shoot-out. Eventually, a memorable fact took place, as HFF allocated the 1/5 of crude income of the final in favour of the aims of UNICEF.

Each tie in the
knockout phase, apart from the first two rounds and the final, was played over
two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs advanced to the next round. If the aggregate score was level, the
away goals rule was applied, i.e. the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs advanced. If away goals were also equal, then
extra time was played. The away goals rule was again applied after extra time, i.e. if there were goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score was still level, the visiting team advanced by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals were scored during extra time, the winners were decided by a
penalty shoot-out. In the first two rounds and the final, which were played as a single match, if the score was level at the end of normal time, extra time was played, followed by a penalty shoot-out if the score was still level.
