  • Refs in the first and third para of the lead? Move 'em out.
    The lead is now rewritten actually... should be a summary of the article
  • "The Stade de France held the " is a full sentence, so full stop, plus could add "(pictured in 2016)" in there too.
  • Link penalty shoot-out in lead.
  • " on golden goals" just the one, presumably, and link.
  • "very first time in team history" ->"first time."
  • "backfired" slightly journalistic.
  • "been a crucial member" according to?
  • "created three" assisted?
  • 'a ball specifically' don't repeat ball here.
  • " the flag of France.[15][16" ovelrinked.
  • "to watch" at the 1998 World Cup." cite?
  • "the quarter-final in 1986" but the link is to the final?

  • "they met Italy, the " overlinked.
  • Avoid single-sentence para (the odds).

  • "including the final of the" fix that link.
  • "assistant referees" link.
  • "7:48pm" non-breaking spaces between time and am/pm per MOS.
  • "At 8:18," pm.
  • " of Zé Carlos" redirects to a dab.
  • "9pm" see above.
  • "from Junior Baiano " missing a diacritic.

  • ""taken by Emmanuel Petit.[71]" overlinked.
  • "from Dunga, but" same.
  • "booking" link.
  • "Brazil substitution as" overlinked.
  • "when Denílson hit " ditto.
  • "of Marcel Desailly after" overlinked.
  • "two reckless fouls" odd link.
  • "Midfielder Emmanuel Petit wrapped up the scoring in the 90+3rd minute" overlinked, if you want to introduce him, do it on the first mention, wrapped up isn't great, and 90+3rd -> 93rd...
  • Second half of match report is a little lightweight?
    Expanded.  — Amakuru (talk) 23:12, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Taffarel and Baiano missing diacritics in the team listing.
  • Stats table could use row/col scopes.
  • "de facto final" wut?
    That was that year with no real final, because the whoel thing was a league. I've changed it to "final match" if that helps.  — Amakuru (talk) 22:15, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "President Chirac handed" no need to repeat President.

    It's no longer in the article.  — Amakuru (talk) 23:12, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ref 77, link Phil and en-dash in score.
  • Ref 78, like ref 75, are these all the same, can they be if not? And here, consistency on FIFA etc.
    It's no longer in the article.  — Amakuru (talk) 23:12, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
