1960s: Building Foundations
After their initial foray, AFC Ajax participated in the 1960–61 European Cup but were eliminated in the preliminary round by Norwegian club Fredrikstad FK, following a 4–3 loss away and a 0–0 draw at home. The decade also saw AFC Ajax's first major European success when they won the International Football Cup in 1962, defeating Feyenoord 4–2 in the final. In the 1968–69 European Cup, Ajax reached the final but were defeated 4–1 by AC Milan.
1970s: Golden Era
The 1970s marked a period of dominance for AFC Ajax in European football. They secured three consecutive European Cups in 1971, 1972, and 1973, defeating Panathinaikos FC, Inter Milan, and Juventus in the finals, respectively. In 1972, AFC Ajax achieved a treble by winning the Eredivisie, KNVB Cup, and European Cup. They also claimed the Intercontinental Cup in 1972 and the UEFA Super Cup in 1973.

After a period of transition, AFC Ajax returned to European prominence by winning the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1987, defeating Lokomotive Leipzig 1–0 in the final. They reached the final again in 1988 but were narrowly defeated by Mechelen.
1990s: Return to Glory
The 1990s saw AFC Ajax reclaim their status among Europe's elite. They won the UEFA Cup in 1992, becoming one of the few clubs to have won all three major European competitions. In 1995, Ajax secured their fourth Champions League title by defeating AC Milan 1–0 in the final. They reached the final again in 1996 but were defeated by Juventus in a penalty shootout.
2000s: Challenges and Rebuilding
The early 2000s presented challenges for AFC Ajax in European competitions. They reached the Champions League quarter-finals in the 2002–03 season but struggled to maintain consistent performances in subsequent years. Despite these hurdles, AFC Ajax continued to develop young talents, laying the foundation for future successes.
