In 1970/71, the 16th draw of the European Cup , the main European cup tournament, took place. The trophy was awarded to Ajax (Amsterdam) , who won the Panathinaikos final. It was the first Ajax Cup of three in a row won by him. In this tournament, the “goal in a foreign field” rule came into effect in all rounds, and the die was replaced by a series of penalty shoot-outs.
