'Skepasti' was the name given to the popular gates 9-11, behind the (southern) goalposts of Nikos Gkoumas Stadium. It means 'overhang' or 'shelter' and refers to the lower tier of the stands. This was where the young (and not so young) supporters of A.E.K used to gather. 'Skepasti' was always full because this was where the very heart of A.E.K beat... Some pictures of 'skepasti': Against AC Milan in flames as also against Barcelona and Inter. Even during construction 'skepasti' was very popular.
Coach of A.E.K is Nikos Kostenoglou.
