"It happened on the 8th of February 1981, right after the end of the derby between Olympiakos CFP and AEK Athens FC. The match ended in an unprecedented triumph for the Piraeus team: 6 goals to 0. The final whistle saw thousands of fans rushing to the exits, trying to get to the stadium's main entrance and celebrate with the players. The stairs of Gate 7 became a death trap. The doors were almost closed and the turnstiles still in place, making exit almost impossible. People continued to come down from the stands, not being able to see what happened below because of the stair's shape. The fatal accident left tens of fans seriously injured and 21 young people dead, most by suffocation.
The most tragic (but also enraging) fact is that no one was ever found guilty for what happened, the court hearing unbelievable stories of how no one was responsible!
Karaiskaki Stadium with its old form is now part of history. One thing is however for sure: the 21 tragic victims of Gate 7 will never be forgotten. 21 seats with their names, which will always be left empty, will be inside the new stadium. This is a promise by Olympiakos and is perhaps the least that can be done in their memory."
