The 1990 European Super Cup was played between 1989âÂÂ90 European Cup winners Milan and 1989âÂÂ90 European Cup Winners' Cup winners Sampdoria, with Milan winning 3âÂÂ1 on aggregate.
Milan chose to play their home leg away from their home city due to the poor condition of the turf at the San Siro Stadium, which had hosted several matches at the recent 1990 FIFA World Cup.
