21.05.1995 Spurs took part in the Euro-Asia Challenge tournament, at the end of a long hard season, along with Hong Kong Rangers, Arsenal and our opponents the Eastern/Kitchee Select XI.

Tottenham eased to a big win, but were shocked by a sixth minute opener by the home side.  Spurs stepped up a gear to score goals from Jurgen Klinsmann 2, Darren Anderton, Nick Barmby 2, David Kerslake and Jason Dozzell before the Select XI got a consolation after the Spurs scoring had ended.  Injury to our German striker meant that he had to return home for treatment and that was his last appearance for Spurs in his first spell at the club.

11.08.1989 Spurs faced Dinamo Bucharest in the 17th Trofeo Villa de Madrid tournament played at the Vicente Calderon stadium of Atletico Madrid.

Sabau gave Dinamo the lead in the 12th minute, but 12 minutes later, David Howells equalised with a shot from the left corner of the penalty area.  Paul Gascoigne set up Paul Stewart in injury time, but Stelea made a fine save to keep the score level, but from the save, Vaiscovici hit Spurs on the break to give Bucharest the lead at the break.

Into the second half, Gudni Bergsson was penalised for a push on Vaiscovici, giving Raducioiu the opportunity to score from the spot and wrap up a 3-1 win in a tempestuous match which saw Paul Walsh and four Dinamo players booked and a red card for Paul Stewart in the 81st minute after a flare-up with defender Klein.

As a "count-back" in the event of a tie on points in the tournament, Dinamo also won a penalty shoot out after the game 6-5, with Tottenham's penalties converted by Terry Fenwick, Paul Moran, Guy Butters, Gary Mabbutt and Ian Hendon.  Mark Robson hit the post with the third Tottenham spot-kick and Andone had also struck the woodwork for Bucharest.

01.05.1986 Ossie Ardiles' Benefit match brought exotic opposition in the shape of Internazionale of Milan, but of more interest to the Spurs crowd was the appearance of Diego Maradona in a Tottenham shirt.

His attendance ensured a sell-out crowd that put the kick-off back to allow everyone in and the game featured a feast of skill with Maradona and Hoddle linking up like they had played together all their lives.

Mark Falco gave Tottenham an early lead and Liam Brady equalised for Inter, but Clive Allen hit a late winner for Spurs, for whom Ardiles could only play a few minutes, being restricted by his knee injury.
