This article is very well written and appears to met most of the criteria. I have a few minor comments:

Route to the final:

• "crack Scottish club" - I'm not sure what is meant by "crack" - could a wikilink be used?
  • It really means just "leading/top/best" in UK vsports vernacular, but I'll reword it so that people don't think they were on drugs

Summary:

• "extremely attaacking strategy" - seems like awkward phrasing
  • reworded
• "coin toss" - could use a wikilink
  • I think it's a pretty common term, but wl added nonetheless
• "acute angle" - could use a wikilink
  • As above
• "handled" - could use a wikilink
  • Done

Details

• It has been a while since I reviewed a football match article. Can the details (attendance, lineups for the teams, referee, etc.) be sourced?
  • Done

Post-match:

• "Mr" - a very trivial detail, but is it standard in British English to not use a period/full-stop at the end of this abbreviation?
  • Yes

I will place it on hold to allow for responses. Any questions or comments can be left here, as this page is on my watchlist. GaryColemanFan (talk) 16:45, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Many thanks for your comments, all addressed I think -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:23, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Looks good. I am promoting the article. Thanks for the quick replies. One thing: I forgot to check the article for disambiguation links when I was doing the review. In the discussion of Cresswell in the "Summary" section, there was a link to Winger, which I changed to Winger (sports). If this is incorrect, the link might need to be fixed.
