Notes

  • - Ian Rush missed a penalty on 70'
  • - Lukic brought down Rush inside the box and Rush took the penalty himself. Lukic redeemed himself by diving to his right to hold the shot.
    - This game was postponed from the previous Saturday (9th February) when the pitch was unplayable due to a heavy snowfall. The postponement meant a loss of £20,000 in Scandinavian television revenue, with viewers there having to watch Barnsley v Portsmouth in the 2nd Division instead.
