- General
- Images good
- Sources good
- No deadlinks, fixed one link needing disambiguation
- NPOV good
- spotcheck of online sources shows no concern with close paraphrasing
- Background
- Three players with injury concerns are noted in the final paragraph, but only one has an injury specifically noted. Is it known which injuries Kennedy and Cunningham were dealing with?
- There's no mention of the injuries to other players in my book unfortunately
- Summary
- "One problem was to get the best out of their winger Cunningham. Not fully fit, he was tightly marked throughout the match and made little impact in the match." - This sentence is somewhat jarring as you go from Real Madrid's scoring chance immediately to a barely defined problem for Cunningham. I presume that the purpose of this sentence is to explain part of Real's offensive challenges, but it does need reworded. Also, the latter half can be simplified: "...he was tightly marked
throughout the matchand made little impact in the match."
- Had a go at rewording think it reads better now. NapHit (talk) 21:37, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
- "...Camacho attempted to lob the keeper, but his shot went over the goal." - specify that he attempted to lob the ball over the keeper.
- "...Real man marked Liverpool's best players such as Dalglish and Souness..." - link "man marked" to Marking (association football) for people like me who aren't fully up to date with football terminology.
- General thought: Is anything known about prize money won for winning? Television coverage and ratings? Any crowd-related issues? I vaguely recollect that hooliganism was an issue at that time, particularly with supporters of English clubs. If these are not available or not applicable, disregard. I wouldn't hold back a GA pass for these, but offer them as food for thought.
- There's no info available on prize money or tv coverage unfortunately (well none that I've come across anyway). As for the hooliganism you're right that it was a problem, but I think you are referring to the 1985 final, as I'm certain there was no hooliganism at this match.

Overall, just a few minor prose issues. Should be easily resolved. Until then, I am placing the article on hold. Regards, Resolute 20:57, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
