Nothing special about this match so not notable. Only a regular qualification match. Qed237  (talk) 11:13, 14 September 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Comment What exactly is notable about this match? A 10-0 scoreline seems unusual and that it would attract a lot of non-routine coverage, but none is cited in this article. Is this because it doesn't exist or just because the article is poorly written? The former is grounds for deletion, the latter isn't. Smartyllama ( talk) 15:16, 15 September 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - While a 10–0 score line is unusual, it is not unheard of for a team to be seriously outmatched in FIFA World Cup qualification tournaments. Australia 31–0 American Samoa is notable because it set two world records; Australia score the most goals ever in a single international match, and Archie Thompson shattered the record for the most goals scored by one player in an international match with 13. Micronesia has the dubious distinction of being on the receiving end of the goals-against record being broken twice during the 2015 Pacific Games Nothing occurred to make this UAE–MAS match any more notable than any other international match. —  Jkudlick •  t •  c •  s 18:58, 16 September 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - no evidence that this can pass WP:GNG; the match is unusual but hardly record breaking Spiderone 21:14, 16 September 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - no evidence of WP:GNG, this is not a record breaking score either. Fenix down ( talk) 07:24, 19 September 2016 (UTC) reply
