The knockout stage of the 1994–95 UEFA Champions League began on 1 March 1995 and ended with the final at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, Austria, on 24 May 1995. The top two teams from each of the four groups in the group stage competed in the knockout stage. For the quarter-finals, each group winner was randomly drawn against the runner-up from another group, with the group winner hosting the second leg. The four quarter-final winners were then drawn together for the semi-finals, the winners of which contested the final.
Qualified teams
The knockout stage involved the eight teams which qualified as winners and runners-up of all four groups in the group stage.
| Group | Winners (seeded in quarter-final draw) | Runners-up (unseeded in quarter-final draw) |
|---|---|---|
| A | Swedish Football Association IFK Göteborg | Royal Spanish Football Federation Barcelona |
| B | French Football Federation Paris Saint-Germain | German Football Association Bayern Munich |
| C | Portuguese Football Federation Benfica | Croatian Football Federation Hajduk Split |
| D | Royal Dutch Football Association Ajax | Italian Football Federation Milan |
Format
Each quarter-final and semi-final was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home; the team that scored the most goals over the two legs qualified for the following round. In the event that the two teams scored the same number of goals over the two legs, the team that scored more goals away from home qualified for the next round; if both teams scored the same number of away goals, matches would go to extra time and then penalties if the teams could not be separated after extra time.
