The FA Cup Final 2013
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 11TH MAY 2013
Nearby

After months of knock-out matches, the last two teams standing come head to head at Wembley Stadium for the final of the FA Cup - the world's oldest domestic football cup competition. Last year, Chelsea beat Liverpool 2-1 to claim their fourth FA Cup title in six years: a second half Andy Carroll goal was not enough after Chelsea went two-up either side of the break through Brazilian midfielder Ramirez and talismanic striker Didier Drogba. Spanish schemer Juan Mata was man of the match - but Drogba took the accolades by becoming the first player in history to score in four different FA Cup finals. Time will tell which teams will line up for this clash - but with Drogba now gone, perhaps Chelsea's aura of invincibility will be lifted.
About Wembley Stadium
The national stadium of the England football team, Wembley Stadium was re-opened in 2007 after a full rebuild to the tune of £757 million. The second largest stadium in Europe, Wembley took over three years to build and is located on the site of the previous 1923 Wembley Stadium, often referred to as 'The Twin Towers' or Empire Stadium, which was demolished in 2003.
