Ferencvaros TC Budapest 2
RWD Molenbeek 1 (aet)
A pulsating European Cup Final, challengers Ferencvaros eventually prevailing over holders RWDM after extra time and a most highly-skilled, tense 120 minutes of top-class technical football, suitable revenge for the Hungarian maestros' 9 - 4 aggregate defeat to Molenbeek in last season's quarter-finals, the first real indication that the Belgian champions were a new continental force to be reckoned with, further evidenced by their impressive progress to this year's final.
For Ferencvaros, the win marks the fourth time they've claimed the trophy, confirming their place amongst Europe's elite, and provides entry into next season's competition despite the loss of their domestic championship to Vasas Budapest.
