... that Irish woman Carol Breen has played internationally in association and Australian rules football? Source: Assoc football: [1], Aussie rules: [2]

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/San Marino in the Eurovision Song Contest
Comment: Better wording can be suggested. I'm trying to avoid the phrase "played for Ireland" as there are two Irish association football teams (Northern Ireland & Republic of Ireland), whereas Aussie rules seems to have a team for the whole island or Ireland

Article is new, neutral and long enough. It cites sources inline. "Earwig's Copyvio Detector" reports no significant text similaraties. The hook is well-formatted and interesting. Its length is within limit. Its fact "playing association football" is not cited explicitly. QPQ was done. Approval will follow the addressing of the issue. CeeGee 09:10, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have updated the article so that it now says "In March 2015, Breen made her debut for the Republic of Ireland women's national football team in the 2015 Istria Cup"- in this context, football means association football. It's supported by [3], although that source calls it soccer rather than association football. Is this okay now? Joseph2302 (talk) 15:06, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's OK. Everything is fine now. Good to go. CeeGee 05:29, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
