| Alan Shearer completes his hat-trick |
Ipswich Town's reign as Unofficial English Champions was to prove short, though they did manage one successful defence with a creditable 2-2 draw against Chelsea.
An away visit to table-topping Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park was next up for Ipswich but Alan Shearer was on deadly form that day.
Shearer got his first after just three minutes, linking up with SAS partner Chris Sutton before firing low across the goal.
His second came with a curling effort from outside the box on the half hour.
Five minutes into the second half, Sutton hit the post but Tim Sherwood was on hand to score from the rebound.
Ipswich got one back from the penalty spot through veteran John Wark but right on full time, Blackburn got a penalty of their own and Shearer was able to get his hat-trick.
Blackburn were top of the table and two-times Unofficial English Champions.
