The 1987-88 season of the European Cup Winners' Cup finished with a shock victory by Mechelen in the final against defending champions Ajax. This led to their 1988 European Super Cup title in the club's first ever European campaign (1987-89). As the next season's Belgian league victor it defended its title in a semifinal of the 1988-89 European Cup Winners' Cup. Financial problems have been keeping this last Belgian holder of any European cup away from a position to be as successful again.

The match was interrupted in the 10th minute with the score 0-0 due to tear gas being thrown in the stands by Hajduk fans. The resulting commotion was accompanied with flares being thrown onto the pitch followed by a pitch invasion by Hajduk fans. The match was resumed some 15 minutes later. UEFA voided the match and awarded a 0-3 win to Marseille due to the crowd trouble. Hajduk was banned from European competition for the two subsequent seasons. Marseille won 7-0 on aggregate.
