A quick internet search reveals nothing more than Wikipedia mirror websites. The article itself is nothing more than a collection of results; refer to WP:NRIVALRY and WP:NOTSTATS. No evidence that WP:GNG is met. Spiderone 12:35, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence this rivalry is notable and is discussed by reliable sources. Eldumpo (talk) 21:42, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Eldumpo: I can only see one reliable source. [1] The other sources don't have any prose whatsoever and one of them is the Arabic language Wikipedia which is obviously not reliable. @Khalid sadeq: please delete one of your keep votes; you can't vote twice.

Delete - fails WP:NRIVALRY, no evidence of sufficient coverage of the notion of a "rivalry" not just match reporting of individual games, to indicate GNG. One source isn't enough. There may well be additional sourcing in Arabic, but these need to be presented here and translated. Fenix down (talk) 13:41, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
