Col A Col B Col C Col D Col E
Country\Date 9-Jan 9-Feb 9-Mar 9-Apr
EUR 10 20 50 90
AUS 5 25 98 10
CAN 1 56 10 32

AUS 9-Feb =INDEX(A1:E4,MATCH(A6,A1:A4,0),MATCH(B6,A1:E1,0))

Here is a slightly shorter alternative formula which uses one less function
call...

=VLOOKUP(A6,A1:E4,MATCH(B6,A1:E1,0),FALSE)
