 ;General 
 *Images good 
 *Sources good 
 *No deadlinks, fixed one link needing disambiguation 
 *NPOV good 
 *spotcheck of online sources shows no concern with close paraphrasing 

 ;Background 
 *Three players with injury concerns are noted in the final paragraph, but only one has an injury specifically noted.  Is it known which injuries Kennedy and Cunningham were dealing with? 

 ;Summary 
 *"One problem was to get the best out of their winger Cunningham. Not fully fit, he was tightly marked throughout the match and made little impact in the match." - This sentence is somewhat jarring as you go from Real Madrid's scoring chance immediately to a barely defined problem for Cunningham.  I presume that the purpose of this sentence is to explain part of Real's offensive challenges, but it does need reworded.  Also, the latter half can be simplified: "...he was tightly marked throughout the match and made little impact in the match." 

 *"...Camacho attempted to lob the keeper, but his shot went over the goal." - specify that he attempted to lob the ball over the keeper.   

 *"...Real man marked Liverpool's best players such as Dalglish and Souness..." - link "man marked" to Marking (association football) for people like me who aren't fully up to date with football terminology. 

  
 *General thought: Is anything known about prize money won for winning?  Television coverage and ratings? Any crowd-related issues?  I vaguely recollect that hooliganism was an issue at that time, particularly with supporters of English clubs.  If these are not available or not applicable, disregard.  I wouldn't hold back a GA pass for these, but offer them as food for thought.  

 Overall, just a few minor prose issues.  Should be easily resolved.  Until then, I am placing the article on hold.  Regards,
