MasterCard Champions League Final 2019: 3 Historic Greek Goals
Mastercard, the official sponsor of the UEFA Champions League, celebrates the 3 most historic goals by Greek teams in the tournament's history.
MasterCard's Greece Madrid 2019 Champions League brand activation campaign has been based on the history of Greek football teams in the Champions League. A committee of journalists sponsored by MasterCard Greece has selected the 3 most beautiful and maybe more historic goals by Greek teams in the history of the UEFA Champions League. Stelios Giannakopoulos for Olympiacos FC against Porto, Kostas Katsouranis for AEK against Real Madrid, and Krzysztof Warzycha for Panathinaikos FC against Ajax. We have designed 3 mosaic artworks showing the 3 players while scoring or celebrating the specific goals. Then we created 3 large puzzles and organized events at various locations, such as shopping malls and cinemas, where people were asked to assemble the puzzles and win prizes, including tickets to the CL2019 Madrid Final. 

Stelios Giannakopoulos. Olympiacos FC - Porto FC, Athens 1997

Kostas Katsouranis, Real Madrid - AEK, Madrid 2002

Krzysztof Warzycha, Ajax - Panathinaikos 0-1, Amsterdam 1996

This is how the mosaic artwork has been build in the events. Hundreds of magnetic pieces were mounted by the visitors of the event. Every piece of the puzzle had an ID number corresponding to gifts, symbolic or very valuable ones.
