Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Veltins-Arena — The entry states the stadium was built as part of Germany's successful 2006 World Cup bid and that construction began in 1998, the same year Germany launched its successful bid, but Germany won the bid on July 6, 2000, not in 1998.

Veltins-Arena — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section claims the stadium hosted a round of 16 match between Portugal and the Netherlands during the 2006 World Cup, but it actually hosted a quarter-final match (Portugal vs. England), and the Portugal vs. Netherlands round of 16 match was

DFB-Pokal Finale — The claim that Bayern Munich won the cup for the 16th time in 2013 is incorrect; they had 15 titles including 2013, with the 16th coming in 2014.

DFB-Pokal Finale — The statement that Bayern Munich won a treble in 2000–01 is factually wrong; they won Bundesliga and Champions League that season but not the DFB-Pokal.

Jupp Derwall Tenure — The entry states that West Germany drew with Greece in the group stage of Euro 1980, but Greece did not qualify for Euro 1980.

Jupp Derwall Tenure — The entry states that West Germany drew with Czechoslovakia in the group stage of Euro 1980, but they actually lost 1-0 to Czechoslovakia.

Miroslav Klose — The claim that Klose came on in the 67th minute and scored in the 82nd minute in a 3–2 win against Greece in his second match is inaccurate; his second match was against Greece on 28 March 2001, he did not score, and Germany lost 2–3.

Miroslav Klose — The claim that Klose helped Germany temporarily lead their qualification group in his second match is misleading; Germany lost that match 2–3 and Klose did not score.

Franz Beckenbauer — The claim that Bobby Moore had previously achieved the feat of winning the World Cup, European Championship, and European Cup as captain is factually incorrect; Moore never won the European Championship or European Cup.

Franz Beckenbauer — He is one of three men to have won the World Cup as a player and as a manager: this is incorrect; there are more than three (e.g., Mario Zagallo, Franz Beckenbauer, Didier Deschamps, and also others like Alberto Suppici, Vittorio Pozzo, and possibly more depen
