WEMBLEY awaits for Arsenal and Chelsea as they battle to take the FA Cup on Sunday evening in front of a crowd of around 50,000.

Last year’s competition has rolled over to this season due to Covid-19 halting play for amateur teams last season. The trophy will find itself a new home after Manchester City — who won it the two years prior — were knocked out in the last round.

Not only will this year provide a fine footballing spectacle, it is the FA Cup’s 50th instalment and 100 years since women’s football was banned in England.
