It remains one of the unlikeliest results in the history of football, but on this day in 1993, in their first and only European campaign, ‘country bumpkins’ Norwich City beat Bayern Munich 2-1 at the German giants Olympic Stadium.

English football was suffering at the time with the national team heading out of the World Cup qualifiers and club sides still overcoming the effects of the five-year European ban after Heysel.

But it was given a spark in the first leg of the UEFA Cup tie as Jeremy Goss scored a sublime volley to seal a famous 2-1 over a Bayern side led by Lothar Matthaus.

The Canaries became the first English side ever to beat Bayern at home.
