Theirs has been an remarkable feat that it is difficult to imagine happening again – from Second Division to continental competition in three seasons." It's also interesting to consider Malmö, who became the first, and to date the last Swedish club to make the championship match under English manager Bob Houghton. This match is a distant from that pinnacle, closer perhaps to the previous continental meeting between Forest and Malmö in that era.
