    • Source: 1951 Greek Football Cup final
    • The 1951 Greek Cup final was the 9th final of the Greek Cup. The match took place on 11 March 1951 at Leoforos Alexandras Stadium. The contesting teams were Olympiacos and PAOK. It was Olympiacos' second Greek Cup final in their 26 years of existence and PAOK's second Greek Cup final in their 25-year history. Before start of the match the crowd "froze" in the presence of two men entering the pitch. The one was dressed as Adolf Hitler and the other as his bodyguard. The missunderstanding ended quickly with the first explaining that he was in fact a fan of PAOK and was dressed up for the Carnival that was not over at the time.
