TFA blurb review[edit]

This one's a bit outside my bailiwick, and I see a lot of experienced blurb writers on the FAC page ... any takers? - Dank (push to talk) 20:40, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A football match between Bayern Munich and Norwich City was played at Munich's Olympiastadion (pictured) on 19 October 1993 as part of the second round of the 1993–94 UEFA Cup and finished in a 2–1 victory for the English side. Jeremy Goss and Mark Bowen scored for Norwich and Christian Nerlinger replied for Bayern. The opening goal by Goss, a volley from outside the area, is considered the greatest goal in Norwich's history, and the victory the pinnacle of the club's history. This was Norwich's third competitive match in European football, while Bayern Munich were playing their 185th European cup tie. The result was a huge upset in European football; it was the only victory by a British club against Bayern Munich in their Olympiastadion. The second leg was played on 3 November 1993 and ended in a 1–1 draw, meaning that Norwich won the tie 3–2 on aggregate. They went on to be defeated by eventual champions Internazionale 2–0 over the two legs in the third round. (Full article...)

We need a bold link to the article to start ... I started to fiddle with it but maybe you've got an idea. - Dank (push to talk) 21:02, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure that Ravenpuff is going to come along and move the "The" inside the link and change it to "A", so I'll do it now ... does that work? - Dank (push to talk) 21:31, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Some readers will need a link to understand "tie" in this context ... I'm having trouble finding it (though I've seen it before). - Dank (push to talk) 21:36, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Try two-legged tie? Added link above. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 21:43, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
