An unrepeatable success for Olympiakos, but also for Greek sports, with the Red and Whites being rewarded for their effort and... driving all of Europe crazy.
A great moment that will never be forgotten. It will be remembered forever and will fill all Greeks with pride. A success that naturally has the seal of the club's leader, Vangelis Marinakis, who over the years did everything to lead Olympiacos to a European trophy and succeeded.
A success that has the signature of Medilibar, who came and changed the fate of Olympiakos, but also of its players, who managed to lead the Piraeus team to the top of Europe. In the pantheon of European football.
So they lined up
Jose Luis Medilibar lined up Olympiakos with Tzolakis in front of goal and Rodinei, Retso, Carmo and Ortega in the back four. Ese, Ibora and Ciquinho were in the midfield trio for the large port team and Pontense, Fortunis and El Kaabi in the corresponding attack. Vicenzo Italiano on the other hand, started Fiorentina with Terazzano in goal and Dodo, Milenkovic, Cuarta and Biraghi in defence. Arthur and Bonaventura were in midfield, with Madragora, Kwame and Gonzalez behind Belotti.
