Partizan took the lead through a goal by
Velibor Vasović in the 55th minute, but Real Madrid equalised in the 70th minute through Spanish international
Amancio.
Fernando Serena scored the winner for Real six minutes later.
This was Real Madrid's sixth European Cup triumph in the 11 years of the tournament's existence, with
Paco Gento being the only Madrid player to win all of these. However, they would not win the competition again until
1998, when
Predrag Mijatović–– who was, ironically, a former Partizan player–– scored the winning goal in the 66th minute of
the final.
