Lead
[edit]- "for the 2020 CONCACAF Champions League and 2020 Campeones Cup." - and the
- Fixed.
Road to the final
[edit]- "The 2019 season was the 24th in MLS history," - This fact is not mentioned in the "MLS releases 2019 regular-season schedule" source from MLS. An alternative source is needed for this instance
- Fixed.
- "facing each team in the same conference twice and teams in the other conference once." - try not to use the same word twice in the same sentence
- Fixed.
Seattle Sounders FC
[edit]- The acroynms of Los Angeles FC should be mentioned in parentheses since its full name is not mentioned elsewhere
- Fixed.
- Designated Player should be wikilinked in this section and not in the Toronto FC sub-section
- Fixed.
Toronto FC
[edit]- "from Richie Laryea and Jonathan Osorio. Osorio added his second" - Try not to have the last word of a sentence start the next one like this
- The acroynms of New York City FC should be mentioned in parentheses since the club's full name is not mentioned anywhere else
- Fixed.
- "to equalize for Toronto; the Reds completed their 2–1 upset victory" - try not to use wording such as "The Reds"
- Trying to avoid using Toronto too frequently, and "the Reds" is a common nickname for the team.
Venue and preparations
[edit]- "including 3,000 allocated to away fans by Major League Soccer." - the text in bold should be written as MLS for consistency with using the league's acroynms after its full name's first mention
- Fixed by using "the league" to emphasize that it came from the league's front office.
- "Prices for tickets on secondary markets peaked at an average of $622," - is the prices of these tickets notable for any reason to merit inclusion?
- The next part of the sentence explains its notability, as it surpassed almost every other mainstream events in Seattle.
- "arriving via a state ferries" - As a British writer, I am not so sure whether this portion of text is gramatically correct in American English or whether there words missing from it
- It was incorrect, and I have rewritten the sentence.
Broadcasting
[edit]- "and worked alongside color analyst Taylor Twellman." - a MOS:SEAOFBLUE violation here
- Removed the first link.
- "The Univision boadcast averaged" - typo; should be spelt as broadcast
- Fixed.
Summary
[edit]- "but his shot was unable to beat goalkeeper" - go past
- Fixed.
Post-match
[edit]- "for the largest sporting event at the stadium and largest soccer attendance in state history." - repetition of the word "largest"
- Fixed.
- "the Sounders earned a berth in the 2020 CONCACAF Champions League, despite having already qualified as the highest-ranked regular season team without a berth." - repetition of the word "berth"
- Fixed.
