      • The 1981 Greek Cup final was the 37th final of the Greek Cup. The match took place on 21 June 1981 at Nikos Goumas Stadium. The contesting teams were Olympiacos and AEL. It was Olympiacos' twenty-second Greek Cup final in their 56 years of existence and PAOK's eleventh Greek Cup final in their 55-year history. The match was marked by riots between fans of both teams, one of the first expressions of hooliganism in Greece. The footballers of both teams were wearing black brassards, as the players of Olympiacos were mourning the victims of tragedy of gate 7 and the players of PAOK in memory of their coach Gyula Lóránt, who had died at the bench on 31 May 1981.

      This was the sixth Greek Cup final held at AEK Stadium, after the 1962, 1967, 1974, 1976 and 1980 finals.
