2002 UEFA Cup final

The 2002 UEFA Cup final was an association football match played on 8 May 2002, between Feyenoord of the Netherlands and Borussia Dortmund of Germany at the Feijenoord Stadion in Rotterdam, Feyenoord's home ground. It was the 31st UEFA Cup final and it was also the first time that the final had been played at a finalist's home ground since the introduction of single-legged finals in the UEFA Cup in 1998. Prior to this match, Feyenoord had not won a European trophy since 1974, when they beat Tottenham Hotspur to win the UEFA Cup final four years after winning the European Cup. Dortmund, who had already won the Bundesliga title, were hoping to become the second German club, as well as the fourth club overall, to have won all three pre-1999 major European trophies (European Cup/Champions League, UEFA Cup/Europa League and the now-defunct Cup Winners' Cup), having won the 1965–66 European Cup Winners' Cup and the 1996–97 UEFA Champions League. Feyenoord won the match 3–2, marking the first European triumph for a Dutch club in seven years, after Ajax won the UEFA Champions League in 1995. As of 2025, this was the most recent European final won by a Dutch club.
