This was in the days of domination in Europe, the Dutch football, especially Ajax Amsterdam. We set ourselves the question, which team is the best in the Old Continent. The matter was resolved the rivalry between the winner of the European Cup and the trophy struggle for the Cup Winners’ Cup. The first won, as expected, Ajax, who beat Glasgow Rangers.
UEFA accepted the formula proposed by the Dutch two matches. This way of selecting the best team functioned until 1997. From the next edition is played only one.
Another change occurred after the 1998/99 season, the last time there was a competition for PPL. Since the season 1999/2000 Super Cup teams struggle that triumphed in the Champions League and the Europa League (UEFA Cup replaced).
