The 1964–65 European Cup was the tenth season of the European Cup, UEFA's premier club football tournament. The competition was won by Inter Milan for the second time in row, beating 1–0 two-time former champions Benfica in a final at San Siro, Milan, on 27 May 1965. It meant that Italian teams had won three consecutive titles (AC Milan had won it in 1962–63).
During this edition a coin toss was used a record three times to decide winners of the ties after play-off matches ended as draws.
Iceland entered its champion for the first time this season, while Cyprus did not enter this time around.
