5x expanded, in time, long enough, sourced, inline hook citations check out (preference to ALT3 & ALT0), no apparent copyvios. SounderBruce, QPQ needed. --Usernameunique (talk) 11:39, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

@Usernameunique: QPQ added and a few of the hooks tweaked. Sounder Bruce 03:25, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

All Set now. —Usernameunique (talk) 04:15, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

@SounderBruce: Consider this a second review, but I think ALT3 is more interesting than ALT0 and could serve as a feel-good hook considering this is planned to go up on the day of the World Cup final (a day that's sure to be painful for the losing team). If you can find a free image for the smiley faces, I'd suggest you add it to the nomination. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 15:02, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

I don't think that a direct image of the jersey would qualify as a free image, and getting one with a player mid-celebration would be tremendously difficult. The hookset only needs one image and I think the Hernandez hook is best used in that spot. Sounder Bruce 22:34, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
