The 1984–85 season of the European Cup club football tournament was won for the first time by Juventus in a close final against defending champions Liverpool, which was overshadowed by the Heysel Stadium disaster.

Following the disaster, English clubs received a five-year ban from entering any European competition, thus ending a period of great success for English clubs in the European Cup that had taken place since 1977. It was not until 1999 that another English club won the trophy.
