American football

Dan Marino broke another NFL passing record, but Miami Dolphins had their defence to thank as they stayed in the play-off chase with a 13-6 win over Kansas City Chiefs. Marino threw 156 yards and a four-yard touchdown pass to OJ McDuffie in the second quarter. In the fourth quarter he passed Fran Tarkenton as the NFL's all-time passing attempts leader with 6,468 yards. Marino has broken the marks held by Tarkenton for completions, touchdowns and yardage this season.

NFL: Miami 13 Kansas City 6.
