  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

This seems to be almost without flaws. Just some minor things:

  • I'd say the lead is slightly too long. You might wanna consider cutting the last sentence. Maybe the sentence about the referee is also not necessary here?
  • You say it is only the second game between Brazil and Germany at a World Cup. There was however a game between the East Germany national football team and Brazil in 1974. You should probably add a sentence about that.
  • You should add an inline citation to the Kroos-caption, even though you are giving the reference later in the text.

That's about it. Thank you for a great article about a great game! :) Zwerg Nase (talk) 09:58, 9 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Cut some of the lead, added a note regarding East Germany and a ref to Kroos. See if anything else is needed. (and how appropriate, a Brazilian nominator - from the state where the game happened! - and a German reviewer) igordebraga 22:33, 9 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
