FA Cup or the Football Association Challenge Cup is one of the oldest football tournaments in the world. Perhaps, it is the oldest national football competition in the world. In this rich history of the FA Cup, there have been several winners starting from 1871-72, the first season of the competition. More than 700 clubs from all around England compete in the league which makes it one of the toughest to win. Arsenal is the most successful team in the history of the FA Cup. They are top on the FA Cup winners list with 14 FA Cup titles. Arsene Wenger is the most successful club manager in the FA Cup history with 7 titles as a manager.

History of the FA Cup

One can imagine a competition that started in 1871-72 and continued will have a rich history. As per the FA Cup historian David Barber, on 20 July 1871 the then secretary of the Football Association Charles W. Alcock, proposed that there should be a competition where every team associated with the association would compete.

"That it is desirable that a Challenge Cup should be established in connection with the Association for which all clubs belonging to the Association should be invited to compete."

Charles W. Alcock, the then secretary of the Football Association

The first match of the FA Cup took place on 11 November 1871 while the final was played on 16 March 1872 at Kennington Oval. Wanderers FC won the first-ever FA Cup title which had Alcock as a player as well. Therefore, Alcock became one of the first ever to lift the prestigious trophy.

Wanderers won 5 of the first 7 finals before clubs like Blackburn Rovers, Aston Villa, and West Bromwich Albion started winning the competition in the last 1800s. Rovers also made a hat-trick of winning the Cup in 1883-84, 1884-85 and 1885-1886. The competition became the ball of the eye for the football fans around England and clubs too.

The Stolen Trophy

In 1895, after Aston Villa had won the FA Cup, the original FA Cup trophy was stolen from a Birmingham shoe shop window. The trophy belonged to William Shillcock of Aston Villa. The thief was not found by the investigation until after 60 years the thief himself accepted his crime. Henry (Harry) James Burge had made that crime. Moreover, he was sent to jail for nearly 50 years for his past crimes as well.

The Non-English Winner

Cardiff City are the only non-English team to win the FA Cup Title. They won it in 1927 against Arsenal.

The League Structure

The FA Cup has the biggest league structure. All of the 92 Premier League Clubs play the FA Cup. Along with them teams from the bottom level also take part in the competition. The FA Cup has 13 rounds of qualification. The lower-level teams play the first rounds of qualification and then teams with higher levels join them.

In 2021, after winning the FA Cup for the first time with Leicester City, Jamie Verdy became the first player to play in the all-qualifying round of the competition.

The "Giant Killing Victory"

The FA Cup is known for the upsets created by the lower-level clubs. It is seen that nearly there is a 99% chance that a club from the lower level would beat the team one higher level every season.

If you take the example of Bradford City beating Chelsea FC in the sixth round of the FA Cup in 2015.

There's nothing like an old-fashioned cup tie, and there's nothing which draws us together as one footballing nation like the Football Association's Challenge Cup.

FA Cup historian David Barber.

10 Most FA Cup Winners List

In total 44 different teams have won the FA Cup. Wanderers FC was the first-ever team to enter the FA Cup winners list while Leicester City is the most recent one. Cardiff City is the only non-English team to feature in the FA Cup winners list. However, they do not feature in the Top 10 Most FA Cup Winners List.

#1 Arsenal Football Club- 14 FA Cup Titles

Famously known as the "Gunners", Arsenal is among the "Big Six" of English Football. A club formed by the workers of the Woolwich factory participated in the FA Cup tournament in 1889/90 with the name of Dial Square. However, they changed their name to "Royal Arsenal" later. After the name kept on changing on many occasions. However, the club and fans stayed with "Arsenal".

They are the team with the most FA Cup Titles. They have won it 14 times. Arsenal won their first-ever FA Cup in 1930 beating Huddersfield Town 2-0. After that, the ball went rolling as they won the trophy another 1936 beating Sheffield United 1-0. However, they did play another final in between those years against Newcastle United in 1932 but lost 2-1.

Their glory time came back in the early 2000s as they were the invincible team in English football. Perhaps, they had the longest winning streak in football with 49 games from 2003-2005. After winning the FA Cup again in 1950, 1971, 1979, 1993 and 1998, they made a hat-trick in the FA Cup.

Arsenal won the cup for consecutive three years in 2001, 2002 and 2003 beating Liverpool, Chelsea and Southampton respectively. Later they also won it in 2005 beating Manchester United in the penalty shoot-outs. The Gunners again proved the FA Cup as their home when they won it in 2014, 2015, and 2017. Their latest FA Cup success came in 2020 when they beat Chelsea 2-1. Aaron Ramsey and Alexis Sanchez were the stars for the Gunners.

Arsene Wenger won 7 FA Cup titles with Arsenal, which is the most by any manager in the history of the competition.

#2 Manchester United - 13 FA Cup Titles

The Red Devils of English Football are one of the most successful clubs in the history of Football. So, it so not surprising that they are also on the top part of the FA Cup Winners List. United have won the FA Cup 13 times.

Made by the workers of Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company in the year 1878, the team was originally named Newton Heath L&YR Football Club. But, as the team's ownership was handed over few businessmen, the club name was changed. They named the club "Manchester United" in 1902.

Manchester United had to wait till 1909 to play their first-ever FA Cup final. But, they did not disappoint their fans as they won the trophy in their first final. They beat Bristol City 1-0.

But, after that, they had to wait long for their FA Cup glory. In 1948 they beat Blackpool 4-2 in their second FA Cup final. In 1957 and 1958 United lost two consecutive finals against Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers respectively. However, in 1963, Manchester won against Leicester City by a 3-0 margin.

The 1990s dominance

The 1976 final was special as it was the last time when the queen presented the FA Cup to the winners. However, United could not make that special as they lost to Southampton 1-0. However, they redeemed their pride as they won the trophy the next year in 1977 beating Liverpool 2-0. Manchester United won the trophy again in 1983 and 1985. In 1985, Kevin Moran became the first player to be sent off in an FA Cup final. In the 1990s they won the trophy 4 times in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1999. Post-2000s Manchester United did not have that much success winning the cup.

#3 Chelsea Football Club - 8 FA Cup Titles

Chelsea or the "Blues" is the only British club to win all three major UEFA trophies: The Cup Winners' Cup, the Champions League, and the Europa League. Regarded as one of the most successful clubs in recent years, Chelsea was never considered a consistent team. In 1905 the club was formed by the businessman Gus Mears, who had bought Stamford Bridge Stadium to rent a club.

The club had won nothing in their first five decades of existence. However, they were very popular among the fans as they were the first team to have more than 40000 attendance in league games. Chelsea won their first FA Cup in 1970 beating the then-biggest club Leeds United. The final was replayed as they beat Leeds 2-0. That final is still the second most-viewed match on television in the UK with 28 million viewers.

Chelsea had to wait more than 25 years to win their next FA Cup. They won it in 1997 beating Middlesbrough 2-0. Despite their not-so-great first century, Chelsea is on the top three of our FA Cup winners list only because of their fabulous 2000s.

From 2000 to 2020 Chelsea managed to play 9 FA Cup finals. Not only that they also won the six of them. Chelsea won the FA Cup in 2000, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2018. Thus making them one of the most successful British clubs in recent years. The 2018 FA Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester United was the first Final to use a video assistant referee (VAR). Post that they lost three consecutive finals in 2020, 2021, and 2022.

#4 Tottenham Hotspur- 8 FA Cup Titles

Next on our FA Cup Winners List is Tottenham Hotspur with 8 FA Cup titles against their name. "Spurs" is another team from the "Big Six" that is on the list.

Tottenham Hotspur was founded in 1882 by some grammar-school boys from All Hallows Church. They were first named the Hotspur but soon changed the name to avoid confusion with Hotspur FC. The 'Spurs' are considered the Cup specialist.

In 1901 they became the first non-league club to win the FA Cup. They defeated Sheffield United 3-1 in the final. But they had to wait until 1921 to win their second FA Cup. They won it by defeating Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0. It was the 1960s that proved very successful for the Spurs. They won two consecutive FA Cups in 1961 and 1962 beating Leicester City and Burnley respectively. The Spurs won the trophy again in 1967 to make the 1960s a remarkable decade.

Tottenham had another good run in the competition in 1981 and 1982. In 1981 they defeated Manchester City 3-2 and in 1982 they defeated Queens Park Rangers 1-0. Both the matches were replayed matches as the first ones were a draw.

Tottenham has the highest win % in FA Cup finals winning 8 out of 9 finals that they played. They only lost to Coventry City in 1987 by a 3-2 margin. This was also the last time they had played the FA Cup final.

#5 Liverpool Football Club- 8 FA Cup Titles

Liverpool is the most successful British club along with Manchester United. The club was founded by John Houlding in 1892 after he parted ways with Everton FC.

Liverpool always had a great reputation for winning big competitions and their fan culture. However, it's their fan culture that made them see two of the most tragic stadium accidents in Football history. The Heysel and Hillsborough accident is one of the darkest days for Liverpool Football Club.

The club lost their first two FA Cup finals against Burnley and Arsenal in 1914 and 1950 respectively. In 1965 they beat Leeds United 2-1 in their first-ever FA Cup title. Then they won it in 1974 beating Newcastle United 3-0.

As the British clubs were banned from the European Leagues for five years after the Heysel accident, Liverpool focused on domestic competitions. They won the FA Cup in 1986 and 1989 defeating Everton twice. After that, they had successful FA Cup campaigns in 1992, 2001, and 2006.

The 2006 FA Cup final was one of the most dramatic ones. Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard scored an equalizer to secure a penalty shootout which they won 3-1 against West Ham. Their recent FA Cup success happened this season in 2022. Jurgen Klopp became the first German coach to win the FA Cup. Meanwhile, Henderson became the first Liverpool captain to win all the trophies that can be won by a Liverpool player.

#6 Aston Villa- 7 FA Cup Titles

Aston Villa is one of the oldest British clubs. It was founded by four cricket players associated with the Birmingham church in 1874. The cricket players founded the football club just to find something to do in the winter.

Villa is the founder member of The Football League and they were also the founder member of the Premier League.

Aston Villa won their first FA Cup in 1887 against West Bromwich Albion. They defeated them by a 2-0 margin. But, West Bromwich Albion took revenge as they were beaten by them in the 1890 FA Cup final.

Fred Wheldon was the top scorer for the season for them with 22 goals.

Before the First World War stopped the competition, Villa won the FA Cup in 1905 and 1913 beating Newcastle United and Sunderland respectively.

In 1920 they beat Huddersfield Town 1-0 to win their 5th FA Cup title. Then, they won it in 1957 against Manchester United in the final. Post that they managed to play two FA Cup finals in 2000 and 2015 but were beaten by Chelsea and Arsenal receptively.

City though managed to get back their reputation in 2019 as they defeated Watford 6-0 for the biggest winning margin in the FA Cup final. They won their last FA Cup title in the 2022-23 season, beating their arch-rivals Manchester United by 2-1.

#8 New Castle United- 6 FA Cup titles

New Castle lost their first three FA Cup finals. In 1905 they lost to Aston Villa and in 1906 they lost to Everton, while in 1908 they lost to Wolverhampton Wanderers. The hearts were broken of all the New Castle fans. However, they did manage to win the trophy in 1910 against Barnsley with a 2-0 victory over them in a replayed match.

#9 Blackburn Rovers- 6 FA Cup Titles

Rovers is one of the oldest clubs in British Football. They were one of the biggest clubs in the earlier years of English football. However, with the rise of more professional clubs, they could not catch up with modern football.

Blackburn Rovers was established by Arthur Constantine and John Lewis in 1875. They were also the founding members of the Football League in 1888. Ewood Park is their home since 1890.

PSG 4-0 Atalanta - UEFA Champions League matchday 1 roundup

Luis Enrique can’t have wished for much more. A swashbuckling attacking display that included four goals and a well-deserved clean sheet.

After a league phase campaign fraught with jeopardy last time round, Paris start their quest for a second consecutive Champions League crown in the most consummate of ways.

As for Atalanta, they toiled and stuck to their task, but will now focus on picking up their first points against Club Brugge in two weeks time.

Full time | Liverpool 3-2 Atletico

Liverpool 3-2 Atletico - Virgil van Dijk scored a late winner for Liverpool Liverpool found a way for a hard-fought three points in their league phase opener.

Atleti deserve huge credit for their response to falling 2-0 down. The hosts fashioned the better chances after the interval, with Mohamed Salah striking the post, but Marcos Llorente’s late volley was cancelled out by Virgil Van Dijk right at the end.

Liverpool could hardly have wished for a better start at Anfield after Andy Robertson’s fortuitous opener and Mohamed Salah’s fine effort, but Atleti have done well to gain a foothold and managed to half the deficit through Marcos Llorente on the stroke of half-time.

The hosts will need to hit the ground running in the second half, otherwise it might be back to square one for Arne Slot's team.

After something of a shaky start, Ajax managed to find their way back into the game.

Ironically, they had the best chance of taking the lead – Yann Sommer saving expertly from Mika Godts – seconds before Marcus Thuram headed the visitors in front at the other end.

John Heitinga’s men will now have to commit more men forward in search of an equaliser, which could play into Inter’s hands.

Sep 17, 2025, 7:53 PM

Half-time | PSG 2-1 Atalanta

A consummate performance befitting of champions. Paris have started their European campaign in much the same vein they finished the last - in total control. In truth, Atalanta had done well to limit the hosts to Marquinhos’ close-range finish, with Marco Carnesecchi largely to thank, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia eventually added a sumptuous second.

Bradley Barcola’s missed penalty is the only blemish, while Atalanta will be grateful for the half-time break.

A pair of penalties from Kylian Mbappé helped Real Madrid turn a deficit into victory in Xabi Alonso's first Champions League game at the helm.

After withstanding early pressure from the hosts, Marseille struck first through Timothy Weah's emphatic finish, but Alonso's side were quickly level when Mbappé converted from the spot following a foul by Geoffrey Kondogbia on Rodrygo.

Although Madrid had Dani Carvajal sent off in the 72nd minute, Mbappé struck again with nine minutes left after Facundo Medina was penalised for handball.

Kenan Yıldız, Felix Nmecha and Dušan Vlahović all scored in a four-minute flurry before Yan Couto's powerful finish made it 3-2 to Dortmund.
