Twenty years after their fourth and most recent European Cup triumph, at Vienna's Ernst-Happel Stadion, Ajax will journey to the Austrian capital again this month to play Rapid Wien in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round.

Frank de Boer, an Ajax player that day in May 1995, will coach the Amsterdam club in the same arena in which an 18-year-old substitute named Patrick Kluivert scored the only goal of the contest against holders Milan.
