Man of the Match: Chuba Akpom*
Note: Match was played behind closed doors. Deputy Minister for Sports Giorgos Vassiliadis acknowledged in a statement that the authorities were unable to ensure the security of the final, citing recent tension between hardcore fans of the two clubs. The unusual decision followed violent clashes between PAOK and AEK hooligans in the two previous finals of the Cup, in Volos in 2017 and at the Olympic Stadium itself in 2018.* Dimitris Pelkas was voted Man of the Match by PAOK fans. Chuba Akpom earned the MVP of the Final award.

Awards

gollark: I mean, I find that lots of people are willing to sell to me directly at really low prices if I actually ask directly.
gollark: There's only, what, one sell shop around, and there are large differences between buy/sell prices.
gollark: This also has the problem that you need the same production on each end anyway.
gollark: Also, with actual mod support it might be somewhat more immersive and might be more automatable.
gollark: e. g. computers with data, slightly damaged tools, enchanted stuff
