Semi-finalsFirst legThe match featured an infamous incident that saw a Hajduk fan run onto the pitch before the start of the second half with a live rooster – in reference to Tottenham's club symbol, the cockerel – and, while standing at the centre circle, kill the animal by snapping its neck. The contest took place as scheduled, however, as a result of the incident, Hajduk were fined CHF3,000 and ordered to play their next European tie at least 300 km away from their home stadium. That tie turned out to be their 1984–85 European Cup Winners' Cup first round match against Dynamo Moscow.---- Second legAnderlecht won 3–2 on aggregate.---- ''2–2 on aggregate; Tottenham Hotspur won on away goals.''
