UEFA Champions League 1994-95

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1994-95 UEFA Champions League was the 40th edition of UEFA's premier European club football tournament, and the third since its rebranding as the UEFA Champions League. The tournament was won by AFC Ajax of the Netherlands with a late goal in the final against A.C. Milan of Italy. Ajax won the competition without losing a game, either in the group or the knock-out stage.

This year included four groups of four teams each in the group stage, up from two groups of four teams each in 1993-94. It was also the first year in which eight teams advanced to the knock-out stage and the first of three years in which champions of smaller nations entered the UEFA Cup instead of the Champions League.
