The result was merge‎ to Argentina–Brazil football rivalry as a primary merge target, though this of course does not forbid merging elsewhere in addition should anyone feel that it's appropriate. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 06:52, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Similar case to Copa Raúl Colombo. Lack of Wikipedia:Notability. This "cup" was not a tournament or recurring sports event but just a friendly match between Brazil and Argentina with no significative historic relevance for any of them.

Although this article has several reliable sources, most of them refer to the Clarín newspaper (main sponsor) and the presence of forward Tulio Maravilha (who had scored a goal with his hand in the 1995 Copa América – source: here) rather than the match itself.

This page could be merged into Argentina national football team results (1980–1999) which lists all the matches of the side during that period. Fma12 (talk) 19:22, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. Alternatively merge/redirect to Argentina–Brazil football rivalry. GiantSnowman 10:11, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge selectively into Argentina–Brazil football rivalry. The match itself doesn't pass WP:GNG, but merge an redirect to general rivalry article is fine, and similar to the recent AFD for 150th Anniversary Heritage Match, which was also a non-notable friendly match.

• Part merge and redirect per Joseph. I also feel that prose should be added to Argentina national football team results (1980–1999) about the match, the article is pretty barren on prose. Govvy (talk) 13:11, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
