Finally good, all is well, thank you again and I wish everyone a happy new year”, he said from the podium knowing the apotheosis after receiving the honorary plaque inscribed “The dream of four refugee generations”.

The well-known actor Pavlos Kontogiannidis speaking at the event said:When they said that the stadium should be built in Liosia, I also insisted on New Philadelphia. Everyone was saying that there is no access to the area. And the Acropolis is not easily accessible but they go from all over the world. The stadium is AEK’s Acropolis».
