1987 FA Charity Shield
- ... that the 1987 FA Charity Shield was played one week early to allow Diego Maradona, Gary Lineker, Michel Platini and Josimar to play alongside one another at Wembley Stadium?
5x expanded by The Rambling Man (talk) and Amakuru (talk). Nominated by The Rambling Man (talk) at 06:53, 16 June 2021 (UTC).
Hi The Rambling Man, review follows: confirmed article more than 5x expanded from 14 June; well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I did a spot check on some random sources and found no issues with overly close paraphrasing; hook is interesting, mentioned in article and checks out to sources cited (interesting they did the centenary match by club played for, I didn't expect to see Lineker among "rest of the world"!); some may ask that the name of the sport is mentioned or otherwise made clear in the hook, but it doesn't bother me, I think Wembley is closely enough associated with football; a QPQ has been carried out. Can't see any issues here, great article - Dumelow (talk) 07:58, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
