No indication of any lasting notability here. The result is big, but not exceptional - the only records broken were at club level. Coverage of this match is entirely routine. If notability is proved in a few years, no prejudice against recreating the article, but even two months after the game, there has been no suggestion that it will be remembered in the same way as (for example) Liverpool F.C. 4–3 Newcastle United F.C. (1996). – PeeJay 10:10, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Would generally agree. It'll be listed on web pages and various other sites and be regurgitated each year - but exceptional result by and of itself isn't indicative of lasting notability any more than the previous highest score... which was?

  • Delete I was the reviewer of the article and I must admit I was tired when I reviewed this. I should not have accepted it.
