| Steffen Iversen puts Tottenham ahead |
Blackburn Rovers were the first five time Unofficial English Champions but looking to join them were Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs were not in the best form heading into this game having lost their previous four matches in all competitions, including a 7-1 drubbing by Newcastle United.
Tottenham took the lead just before half-time after Blackburn had been sloppy in defence and Steffen Iversen was able to prod them ahead.
Blackburn equalised in the second-half, veteran defender Colin Hendry arriving to head home from a corner.
The winning goal came in the 83rd minute. A long-throw bounced loose in the box and Andy Sinton pounced on it, driving it in low to win the game for Spurs.
If there was an Unofficial English Championship trophy it was now Spurs' to keep.
