Lead

edit
  • ...they had a perfect record with four titles, while Qatar were playing in their first,... - Maybe change this section so that it stated that Japan won their previous four finals. Also you could end the sentence from Japan side and drop the world "while" in there.
    • Done, but in a different way.
  • You could also include a extended summary of the match instead of stating the result of the game.
    • Added the timing of goals, but I don't want to fatten it up with goalscorers and the like.

Venue

edit
  • This is properly just me, but could you maybe move the image of the stadium to the left instead of the right so their is a big gap in the middle of this article.
    • The left alignment would have caused spacing issues with the next header, so I used {{stack}} to create a half-solution using the right alignment.
  • This might not be relevant but also add the fact that it was one of the stadiums that hosted the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship as it was the final venue.
    • Added.

Road to the Final

edit

Japan

edit
  • The final sentence in the second paragraph is a bit on the long side. Maybe have something that is the match than in a different sentence state that they finished top.
    • Split the sentence.
  • The quarter-finals marked the debut of the video assistant referee(VAR) system at the Asian Cup... - I don't know if this is just me but seems to be added on in a way that is tacked on at the start to make it more good.
    • The VAR was introduced in this round and was used to decide the match for Japan, so I think it should stay.
  • ...Japan used an improved attack in the second half to win 3–0 and advance... - You say their was an improved attack in the second half but nothing about the first half in the semi final??
    • Reworded and added that the first half was scoreless...the match description did not mention much about the first half.

Qatar

edit
  • ...group stage in 2000 and 2011 before being eliminated in the quarter-finals. - By who did they eliminate them.
    • I don't think listing the quarter-final opponents is necessary, as they aren't mentioned in the citations.
  • ...that broke their record for largest win margin - Forgot to add "their between for and largest.
    • Fixed and changed to "margin of victory"
  • No reference to the game against Switzerland.
    • The citation covers both the Swiss and Iceland matches.

Pre-match

edit

Match

edit
  • It was the first goal to be conceded by Qatar during the tournament. - This sentence feels like it could better be incorporated into the previous sentence.
    • Merged.
  • video assistant referee is not meant to be linked here.
    • Unlinked.

Post-match

edit
  • Again you have video assistant referee as linked in this section. Maybe you could have it as VAR and that is the same in a couple of the earlier sections of the article.
    • Fixed, but I think it's better to have it unabbreviated at this point.

See also

edit
  • This is fine

References

edit
  • Looking the reference section, I am seeing a lot of blue in this section which those references being 9, 10, 12-13, 19, 21, 25-28, 30-35, 42, 46, 52, 55-56, 61, 66, 68 and 72. So that could be a problem especially if these pages are archived.
    • Most of these are errors related to TheNational.ae, which is a major English-language UAE newspaper, and Reuters.
  • Reference 15 and the official website reference has both being redirected so modify those couple of links.
    • Both repaired.

Final Comments

edit

So just do some fixing up with these little sections and I reckon it would be good enough for the Good Article. HawkAussie (talk) 10:10, 10 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
