The Match
Red Star entered the match confident of claiming the intercontinental crown. Since their European Cup success they had lost the services of midfielder Prosinecki but still travelled to Japan with a squad including such talents as Dejan Savicevic, Vladimir Jugovic and Sinisa Mihajlovic. Their supremacy was such that they were still able to win comfortably despite the loss of Savicevic to a red card shortly before half-time. By then they were already a goal up after Savicevic had crossed for Jugovic to score in the 19th minute. Jugovic doubled their advantage after 58 minutes when he struck from close range after Colo Colo keeper Jose Moron could only parry Sinisa Mihajlovic's shot from distance. Mihajlovic was involved again in the third goal when he sent over a cross and Darko Pancev scored with a right-foot finish from close range with 18 minutes remaining.

The star of the team
As with Savicevic and Mihajlovic, Jugovic went on to enjoy a glittering career in Italy following his Man of the Match performance in Tokyo. A clever, ball-playing midfielder he came off the bench to strike the winning penalty as he won the UEFA Champions League with Juventus in 1996 and picked up a second Toyota Cup winner's medal later that same year as Juventus beat River Plate. Jugovic subsequently appeared for Yugoslavia at the 1998 FIFA World Cup TM in France.

The coach
Vladimir Popovic was already a legend at Red Star from his days as team captain in the 1960s when he made over 500 appearances for the club, winning four league titles. After ending his playing career in South America he started out as a coach in Venezuela and Colombia before returning home. By the time he replaced European Cup-winning coach Ljupko Petrovic in summer 1991 to begin his second spell in charge of Red Star, he already had 20 years' coaching experience behind him. He introduced a more attacking style and won the Yugoslavian title in addition to the Toyota Cup in 1991/92 before taking the job of Peru coach. Now 70, his most recent coaching position was in Libya.
