• ... that West Germany's Gerd Müller scored six goals in two games against the Soviet Union, including two in the UEFA Euro 1972 Final?

5x expanded by The Rambling Man (talk). Self-nominated at 19:30, 9 July 2021 (UTC).

• QPQ is good to go. Article is long enough. 353 characters before expansion, so 1765 needed. Article has more than that. Article is neutral. Hook is below 200 characters and is interesting. Hook is neutral. There are typos: In the 52nd minute, Murtaz Khurtsilava lost possession of the ball to Herbert Wimmer who himself himself, after numerous West Germany passes, struck a left-footed shot past Rudakov to make it 2–0. Also After a goalless first half, the game ended 4–1 to West Germany with Müller scoring all of his side's goals while Kolotov's scored the Soviet Union's consolation. I don't believe there should be an apostrophe there. The one source that is online is good to go, the other (O'Brien 2021, p. 78.) is AGF. No images in hook. Actually lower the hook is cited, so that's OK. Spotchecks on refs 42 and 40 come back clean. Good to go. Therapyisgood (talk) 15:02, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Some Dude From North Carolina all done bar the "two minutes" reword, because that's exactly right and the Soviet Union plurals (British English allows for this approach). Cheers for the review! The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 19:19, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
