Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Trophy Play-Off

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The last Inter-Cities Fairs Cup was contested in the 1970-71 season before it was replaced by the UEFA Cup, and a new trophy. The old trophy had not been won by any club permanently, so a one-off play-off game was arranged between FC Barcelona, who were the original winners and had held the trophy a total of three times with one final defeat, and Leeds United, who were the current holders and had won the competition twice and had been runners-up once. The game took place on 22 September 1971 at the Camp Nou. FC Barcelona won 2–1, with two goals from Dueñas.
