FC Barcelona 6–1 Paris Saint-Germain F.C.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Another football match that fails WP:NEVENT. It wasn't the final of a competition, just a comeback. The problem is what makes this more notable than any other comeback in European Cup history? Considering Barca didn't win the competition, there's unlikely to be long-term articles talking about the match. Should be deleted as it's clearly doesn't meet the guidelines for a standalone article. NapHit (talk) 16:41, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Keep as per refs at the end of the lead (#5 and #6 currently). Biggest-ever comeback in the 60-year history of the European Cup / Champions League. It would be reasonable to add it in the appropriate section of the season article for the 2016–17 UEFA Champions League instead, but editors who 'control' those articles prefer to keep them limited to pretty much only the scorelines with minimal prose. It's s bit WP:CRYSTAL to say it's unlikely there will be long term interest. I could just as easily say the statistics indicate there won't be another four-goal comeback until the 2070s so it's a highly significant event in terms of pan-European football which is obviously of interest to many readers.

 * Keep - I have a personal fairly strong notability test for individual games, which this meets. Coverage is continuing and will do. Important game. GiantSnowman 07:33, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Less sure about this one, but given how unique and controversial this comeback was, it deserves to have its own article on Wikipedia. Govnery (talk) 08:30, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep not many football matches have a special name ("La Remontada" that is recognized by a dictionary), and the fact that this does confers a different level of notability. Eumat114 (Message) 11:16, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
