I question whether this deserves a separate article, given our practice elsewhere. Wikipedia is not a news site, and any coverage is short-term, sports newsy based. Ironholds (talk) 06:32, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football related deletions. ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:38, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. This match is certainly not notable enough for its own article.  Bettia  (talk)  10:42, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete individual games can receive independent articles but this article does not explain why it should. Appears to be just another game in a tournament. My vote isn't based on it, but the article needs clean-up to what little info is already there.Cptnono (talk)
 * Delete There's no context for this, let alone a claim for notability. The description in the title suggests that it was played in the second round of a cup-winner's cup tourney, comparable to an early round playoff game in any other sport.  The vast majority of non-title games are not notable enough for their own articles.  Mandsford (talk) 13:28, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - There is no reason in this article to show why this game, which was a quarter-final in the 2002-3 Champions League, is has notable has the final. DitzyNizzy (aka Jess) | (talk to me) | (What I've done)  16:16, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
