• Danny Blind scores the decisive penalty in a 4-3 shoot-out win as AFC Ajax secure the European/South American Cup after being held to a goalless draw by ten-man Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense in Tokyo.

• Chelsea FC sign Romanian international Dan Petrescu from Sheffield Wednesday FC for a club-record fee of £2.3m. It cost over ten times that to bring Andriy Shevchenko to Stamford Bridge a decade later.

• The Netherlands hold their nerves to beat Norway 3-0 and pip their opponents to second in EURO '96 qualifying Group 5; anything less than three points would have brought an end to the Oranje's campaign.

• Despite having only third place in Group 6 to play for, Northern Ireland and Austria provide a feast of entertainment for the crowd of 8,451 at Belfast's Windsor Park as the hosts run out 5-3 victors.
