# Feyenoord in European football

Feyenoord is one of the three major association football clubs in the Netherlands, and have a successful record playing in European competition. They have won the European Cup/Champions League one time, and the UEFA Cup twice. In addition, the club has also won the Intercontinental Cup once, and played in one UEFA Super Cup match. Below is a list of all official European matches contested by Feyenoord.

## History
### 1960s: European Breakthrough and First Triumph

Feyenoord made their European debut in the 1961–62 European Cup but had their first significant impact in the late 1960s. The club reached the semi-finals of the 1962–63 European Cup, where they were eliminated by Benfica. However, their golden moment came in the 1969–70 season, when Feyenoord became the first Dutch club to win the European Cup. Led by coach Ernst Happel and key players like Ove Kindvall and Willem van Hanegem, they defeated Celtic F.C. 2–1 in the final after extra time, securing their place in history.

### 1970s & 1980s: Super Cup, UEFA Cup, and Decline

Following their European Cup success, Feyenoord won the 1970 Intercontinental Cup against Estudiantes, proving their strength on the global stage. In the mid-1970s, they remained competitive in Europe but were overshadowed by Ajax and later PSV Eindhoven. The club found continental success again in the 1973–74 UEFA Cup, defeating Tottenham Hotspur in the final. However, the 1980s saw a decline in European performances, with Feyenoord rarely progressing far in European competitions.

### 1990s: UEFA Cup Redemption

The 1990s marked Feyenoord’s return to the European spotlight, particularly with the introduction of the UEFA Champions League. They were regular participants in the competition, with a notable campaign in the 1993–94 season when they reached the group stage. In the 1994–95 UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, Feyenoord advanced to the semi-finals before being eliminated by Real Zaragoza. Despite strong domestic performances, they struggled to make deep runs in European tournaments. Their best Champions League performance of the decade came in 1999–2000, when they topped their group and reached the second group stage, showcasing their ability to compete at the highest level.

### 2000s: Champions League and Another UEFA Cup Victory

The early 2000s saw Feyenoord consistently competing in the Champions League, with a notable second-round finish in 1999–2000. However, their crowning achievement came in the 2001–02 UEFA Cup. Under coach Bert van Marwijk, Feyenoord defeated Borussia Dortmund 3–2 in the final, played at their home ground, De Kuip. This victory secured their third UEFA Cup and reaffirmed their status as a European contender.

### 2010s: Group Stages and Struggles

The 2010s were a challenging decade for Feyenoord in Europe. While they frequently participated in the Europa League and Champions League, deep runs were rare. A highlight was the 2016–17 season when they won the Eredivisie and qualified for the 2017–18 Champions League, marking their return to Europe’s elite competition after 15 years. However, they struggled in the group stage, finishing last.

### 2020s: Europa Conference League Final and Continued Ambition

Feyenoord regained European relevance in the 2021–22 season, reaching the final of the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League under coach Arne Slot. They lost 1–0 to AS Roma but demonstrated their ability to compete on the European stage once more. In subsequent seasons, they continued to participate in European competitions, aiming to build on their resurgence and challenge for another major continental trophy.
