- 01:3601:36, 20 November 2018 diff hist +6 Alcorconazo oops. Forgot the first leg score.
- 01:3501:35, 20 November 2018 diff hist +145 Alcorconazo I guess Marca used Alcorconazo for only the first leg? Not clear to me whether it should be only the first or both. For now I've rewritten it to be only the first, but included the second-leg result in the lead since it's pretty essential to the significance that ADA advanced.
- 01:3001:30, 20 November 2018 diff hist +10 m Alcorconazo feels biased to mention RMCF more times than Alcorcón in the lead
- 01:2901:29, 20 November 2018 diff hist +34 Alcorconazo eliminatory is not a valid translation for eliminatoria. I'm going with two-legged matchup as internationally intelligible, as opposed to something like a two-legged "cup tie" (tie has radically different UK and NAm meanings) or "series" (chiefly NAm term, rarely used for two-leg association football pairings).

- 18:1618:16, 31 July 2018 diff hist −1 DR Congo national football team →Glory period: oops, forgot to end a sentence in my previous edit. And "however" implies more of a contrast than is warranted, a sort of bothsidesism not merited here.
24 July 2018
- 04:0504:05, 24 July 2018 diff hist +5 DR Congo national football team →Glory period: Change in emphasis on the Ilunga free kick incident. Frankly the previous emphasis was borderline xenophobic/racist, giving too much credence to the widely-held contemporary notion that a Zairian African Cup of Nations champion was too naive or undisciplined to know or follow the rules.
