Swindon Town Manchester United
L.Nijholt (36'), J.Fjørtoft (88')
 HT: 1-1 R.Keane (13'), P.Ince (62')
Attendance:  18,102   Referee:  B. Hill



 
Yes, it really did happen - Man Utd came to Swindon for a LEAGUE game, and didn't win! A week after the Town concede seven at Newcastle, they become the only team to score four past the champions elect in the whole season - it was a feisty affair, with Luc Nijholt offering Roy Keane out, and Cantona eventually losing it with John Moncur.
