this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Overall: Article is fine, just needs QPQ. I prefer ALT0 to ALT1. If this doesn't run before the second leg, I'd suggest doing a variation on ALT0 along the lines of "
Seattle Sounders FC won/lost their first CONCACAF Champions League Final last week". That said, if they do win it would be more interesting for the hook to say that they're the first MLS team to do so IMO.

Striking out both hooks now that the matches are over and I can present a new one:
Thanks, re-reviewing the article now. @
SounderBruce: describing the Sounders as a finalist seems weird because they won the competition, typically only the losing team is a finalist. What about something like "...that by winning the 2022 CONCACAF Champions League Final, the Seattle Sounders FC became the first MLS..."?

Article looks solid, only two minor suggestions. First, in the lead, I think the paragraph about Seattle winning should be above where the two legs were. Second, the only see also link is a red link, which is discouraged - is that the correct target?

Legoktm: Merged the paragraphs together, but I think the winner should come after the first leg's result is mentioned (similar to other two-legged cup FAs like
1981 UEFA Cup Final). Also removed the red link, which was leftover from when the article's skeleton was copied over. SounderBruce07:32, 8 May 2022 (UTC)reply
