Background: On November 12, 1930, SK Rapid’s 3-2 defeat in the Mitropacup final was enough to win the competition, considered one of the first precursors to the European Cup. This historic victory is one of the greatest successes in the club’s history and is representative of SK Rapid’s role in European football at the time. In the photo of the team with the trophy after the final victory, Eduard Bauer’s team at that time wears a green jersey with white sleeves. The dress, now chosen exclusively for the 2020/21 UEFA Europa League, is based on this and is intended to be a tribute to the great heroes of Rapid, but at the same time build a bridge between the Mitropacup, which is of enormous importance in terms of sports and socio-political history, and today’s European Cup. .
