Venue

edit
  • The acronyms of the National Football League should be in parentheses on its first mention
    • Done
  • Wikilink neutral-site venue to Home advantage#Neutral venues
    • Done
  • "The new stadium was built to replace the old Foxboro Stadium" - former would be more formal in this instance
    • Done

Road to the final

edit
  • The United States should be delinked since it is a major geographic feature
    • Done
  • "a 3–2 win for New England on May 25 and a 2–1 win" - change the second instance of "win" to victory to avoid close reptition of that particular word
    • Done

Los Angeles Galaxy

edit
  • Delink NFL since it is linked in the Venue section
    • Done
  • "Veteran forward Cobi Jones enjoyed finished second in the team's goals behind Ruiz" - better; Veteran forward Cobi Jones placed second in the team's final goals scored standings behind Ruiz
    • Done

New England Revolution

edit
  • Freddy Garcia should be linked to Freddy García (footballer), not to the article on the baseball pitcher
    • Done
  • "New England conceded two late goals to draw 2–2 and force overtime periods." - how many overtime periods?
    • Removed "periods"

Details

edit
  • Steve Nicol is Scottish and should have the flag of the Scotland and not the flag of England before his name
    • Done

Post-match

edit
  • "The 2002 final was attended by 61,316 spectators," - change the text in bold to game to avoid close reptition of the word "final"
    • Done

References

edit
  • Reference 50 is missing the publisher of the work
    • Done
