I'll review this article shortly. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 03:40, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found:

David Johnson links to a disambiguation page; have it link to the right person.
"Liverpool's opposition in the semi-finals was the team they beat to win the European Cup the previous season Borussia Mönchengladbach." comma after season.
"Brugge won the match 5–2, a 9–2 victory on aggregate" and a
"The match was a close affair, Atlético needed to have any chance of reaching the semi-finals." huh? missing a couple of words there.
"A Graeme Souness pass released Kenny Dalglish into the Brugge penalty area." not entirely sure what this means; reword.
"shadow of the side we played in the Uefa Cup final two seasons ago" Shouldn't UEFA be in all-caps? Since it's a quote maybe that's how it was written.
In general, the prose is really dry and rigid. It's tough to put my finger on, but it caused me to struggle to get through this article. I would send this to GOCE for some fine-tuning to add fluidity in the route section; the match section is mostly fine.

I'll put the article on hold and, once a copyedit's been done, I'll pass the article. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 03:14, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've dealt with all your concerns and sent the article to GOCE for a copyedit, hopefully that will be done fairly soon. NapHit (talk) 12:22, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article reads a lot better now after the copyedits, so I'll pass the article as a GA. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 17:20, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
