Ajax return (1993–1995)
After five seasons in Italy,
Rijkaard returned to Ajax in 1993. With Louis
van Gaal at the helm, Rijkaard and Danny Blind
formed the experienced defensive core of the
Ajax team that won the first two of three
consecutive Dutch Championships. Ajax were the
unbeaten champions of the Netherlands in 1994–95
season and carried that success into Europe. In
his final game, Rijkaard won the European Cup
(which had been renamed as the Champions League)
again, with a 1–0 victory over AC Milan in the
1995 final at the Ernst Happel Stadion in
Vienna. |
