Alternative to VLookUp that can check if two factors are true

Question

I am wondering is there any alternative to VLookUP() that can check two factors before returning a value. I want to search for an identifier that is only unique for a given date.

IE the Key exists multiple times in the dataset but only once for each date so the date and the key combined form a primary key.

Note: I want to do this without adding a column to the dataset.

This is a simplified example. I want a formula that will return 304 if I look up using 02/03/20 and 89076.

My current solution is to make another column that concatenates column A and column B and then do a Vlookup on the column but I am looking for a solution that does not require adding another column.

In Excel 2010, if you not looking for a figure but actual text, try the following:

=INDEX(D:D,MATCH(1,INDEX((A:A=DATEVALUE("02/03/20"))*(B:B=89076),),0))
