That takes me to "Pre-match". The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 20:19, 21 August 2021 (UTC)
- Done all. There were some links I shifted since they were already mentioned. Didn't add qualifying group since I think it's already clear when it says "England qualified for the tournament..." Inquired about the (H) situation. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 15:30, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

- Also, what makes the Daily Mirror the best source for Johnson turning up? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:27, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
- "forward by passing it around" the ball.
- "wanted a penalty, but" overlinked.
- " the English penalty" England, not English.

- UEFA investigation: merge those paras.

That's about it. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 10:50, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) I've done most of these, except for the block info, merging the UEFA investigation paragraphs, and the cited attendance in the "details" section. I didn't watch the match or have any interest in it, so it's been an interesting read for me to approach the subject in a neutral manner. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:27, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
