Tournament details[]

Totally 72 teams participated, 18 from Alpha Ethniki, 18 from Beta, and 36 from Gamma. It was held in 6 rounds, included final.

Without particular surprises, minus the elimination of Aris in the Group stage by Ethnikos Piraeus and Paniliakos, teams of lower divisions, the three big teams of Attica qualified easily or with difficulty to semi-finals. In that round, Olympiacos eliminated AEK Athens, the season's champions, after two very interesting matches, with qualification to be judged in extra time. Panathinaikos had easier work against Apollon Athens.

In the Final, that was held in Olympic Stadium, Panathinaikos managed to win their eternal opponent by 1–0,^[1] opening the street for a line of three possessed wins of the Cup. Vasilis Dimitriadis was elected as first scorer, scoring 10 goals.
