The 1995 UEFA Champions League final was an association football match played on 24 May 1995 at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, Austria, to determine the winners of the 1994–95 UEFA Champions League, the 40th season of Europe's premier club competition organised by UEFA. It was contested by Dutch side Ajax and Milan of Italy in a rematch of the 1969 final.

However, after 85 minutes, Ajax striker Patrick Kluivert scored the only goal of the game to give Ajax the title; at the age of , that made him the youngest player to score in a UEFA Champions League final.
