The Pre-Mediterranean Cup was an association football tournament hosted by the Hellenic Football Federation in Athens. The competition was conducted once, in 1991, and the winner was AEK Athens. [1] [2]

Contents

In June 1991, the only Pre-Mediterranean cup was conducted in Georgios Kamaras Stadium, the home field of Apollon Smyrna, with the participation of the best-eight football clubs of 1990-91 greek Superleague. Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, PAOK and Iraklis forfeited the competition due to their players being tired from constant Superleague (known as A Ethniki at the time) games. In the semi-finals, AEK Athens played against Apollon Smyrnis and won 4-2, and OFI played against Athinaikos and won 1-0. In the final game of the competition, AEK Athens secured a 1-0 victory against OFI Crete to obtain the title, the only goal of the game was scored by Takis Karagiozopoulos from the penalty spot. [3]
