Panathinaikos FC, whose full name is Panathinaikos Athlitikos Omilos (Pan-Athenian Athletic Club), was founded on February 3, 1908, by Georgios Kalafatis in Athens. It is one of the most decorated and traditional clubs in Greek football, and one of the few never to have been relegated. Its distinctive colours are green and white, and its emblem is a three-leaf shamrock, which gives it the nickname 'To Trifylli'.
Throughout its rich history, Panathinaikos has won 20 Super League Greece titles and 20 Greek Cups, as well as 3 Greek Super Cups. The club is renowned for its passionate fanbase and its historic rivalry with Olympiacos, a clash known as the 'Derby of the Eternal Enemies', which transcends sport and has deep socio-cultural roots. The Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium, located on Alexandras Avenue, is considered its traditional home and one of the oldest grounds in Greece.
Internationally, Panathinaikos reached the European Cup final in 1971, losing to Ajax, and also played in the Intercontinental Cup that same year. Furthermore, they have reached the semi-finals of Europe's premier competition on two other occasions (1985 and 1996).
