The 1990 European Cup Final was a football match between Milan of Italy and Benfica of Portugal, played on 23 May 1990 at the Praterstadion in Vienna, Austria. The winning goal came in the 68th minute for Milan, when Alessandro Costacurta passed the ball to Marco van Basten, who then slotted it to Frank Rijkaard, the latter of whom ran through the opposing defence and scored the only goal of the match.[1][2]
Prior to 2017, Milan were the last side to have defended the trophy after winning it the previous season.
