The article was expanded more than fivefold less than seven days before the nomination. It is long enough and neutral. There do not seem to be serious copyright issues. The words "South Sudan gained independence from Sudan" are the same as in the source. This probably does not cause a copyright violation, but it would be better to paraphrase it less closely. The nominator has done QPQ. The article uses inline citations. Most of the information is verified in the sources. The source cited for the fact that South Sudan gained independence on 9 July 2011 only states that it gained independence in July 2011. The fact is stated in the
South Sudan article, so it is probably correct, but it would be better to include a citation that verifies it directly. The sources do not seem to verify that the South Sudan Football Association was formed in April 2011.
This source cited in the article states that it was founded in 2011, but does not state which month. The
South Sudan Football Association article seems to contain sources for it. The article needs to be copy edited. It contains confusing sentences such as "The semi-finals were one of matches." The hooks are cited, and they are short. ALT1 seems more interesting.

I was going to promote this, but the four citations I checked (7, 8, 9, 10) all produced error messages.
