:00:26. > :00:30.Good morning and welcome to a very special FA Cup final ediion of
:00:31. > :00:34.I remember cup final day as a kid and there is something so magical
:00:35. > :00:39.The Crystal Palace and Manchester United players would have
:00:40. > :00:42.dreamed that they would be stepping out at Wembley one day to have a
:00:43. > :00:45.chance of winning the most historic cup in football.
:00:46. > :00:52.Later today, the dream will become a reality and I am so jealous!
:00:53. > :00:54.Coming up, goals galore, as we look back on
:00:55. > :01:01.Crystal Palace fans get a surprise visit from Gary's
:01:02. > :01:10.Plus, we look back at the last time the teams met in the FA
:01:11. > :01:12.Cup final, with a United-mad dad and lad.
:01:13. > :01:17.busy week of football, with the headline hitters.
:01:18. > :01:19.Last weekend, Wembley played host to the women's
:01:20. > :01:22.FA Cup final and this spectacular streak from Dani Carter gave
:01:23. > :01:25.Arsenal a 1-0 victory over Chelsea in front of a record crowd.
:01:26. > :01:27.On Monday, the Leicester players showed off the Premier League trophy
:01:28. > :01:30.More than 240,000 people lined the streets of
:01:31. > :01:34.Leicester to watch their heroes parade the trophy.
:01:35. > :01:36.When Jack had this photograph taken at the start of the
:01:37. > :01:41.season after Leicester had only drawn with Mansfield Town, who
:01:42. > :01:43.would've believed what would have happened next?
:01:44. > :01:45.For Liverpool, the Europa Cup dream ended on Wednesday
:01:46. > :01:50.After an incredible opening goal from Daniel Sturridge, Spanish
:01:51. > :01:52.side Seville proved too strong in the second half
:01:53. > :02:00.So, in just under ten hours' time, Crystal Palace and
:02:01. > :02:03.Manchester United will battle it out for the famous FA Cup.
:02:04. > :02:06.At the start of the season, 736 teams entered the
:02:07. > :02:15.I am sure the managers, Alan Pardew and Louis Van Gaal,
:02:16. > :02:17.will be up this morning working on tactics over breakfast.
:02:18. > :02:19.I wonder what they have for breakfast?
:02:20. > :02:21.Louis Van Gaal will have a croissant.
:02:22. > :02:23.I am guessing Alan Pardew is a big fry-up man.
:02:24. > :02:27.If you want to find out more about the two managers, head to the
:02:28. > :02:29.Kick About website, for our Who Said What?
:02:30. > :03:00.First, we can see how Crystal Palace made it to the final.
:03:01. > :03:35.Martin Kelly, an unlikely first goal-scorer.
:03:36. > :03:49.Fraizer Campbell, with what is surely is the last kick of the game!
:03:50. > :03:51.The ball flicked onto the back post and
:03:52. > :04:05.Agonisingly out of reach for the goalkeeper.
:04:06. > :04:18.And Connor Wickham has restored Crystal Palace's lead.
:04:19. > :04:22.As you can see, the Eagles have been in fine form in the cup this year,
:04:23. > :04:25.but can they go all the way and win the final?
:04:26. > :04:27.We sent Ben to find some mini Palace pundits.
:04:28. > :04:29.The Premier League action may be over,
:04:30. > :04:32.here at Selhurst Park and preparations are already under way
:04:33. > :04:38.But the home team, Crystal Palace, of course, already
:04:39. > :04:41.have one more big appointment and it is not here, but at Wembley,
:04:42. > :04:45.Luckily, there is a school just down the road from here,
:04:46. > :04:49.so I am going to head there and get the low down from the kids as to
:04:50. > :04:51.whether the Eagles can overcome Manchester United.
:04:52. > :04:53.I also have a little treat in store for them, too.
:04:54. > :05:07.That trip just took just five seconds.
:05:08. > :05:26.Anyway, here we go. That may be a bit of a clue. Yes, we are finally
:05:27. > :05:33.here! Enough of the talking, I think it is time for us to sing. We are
:05:34. > :05:59.the famous Crystal Palace and we are off to Wembley.
:06:00. > :06:11.26 years ago, we lost to Manchester United in the final, but this time
:06:12. > :06:17.we're going to destroy them. I think we will destroy the Manchester
:06:18. > :06:24.United defence. Connor woke Connor Wickham will use all his strength
:06:25. > :06:26.and score the school. They believe the Eagles are going to sort out
:06:27. > :06:48.Wembley. Thank you for these predictions. You
:06:49. > :06:52.are backing your home team and quite rightly. Personally, I think
:06:53. > :07:05.Manchester United may just be too strong. And you Gary's Big Ears saw.
:07:06. > :07:26.No, thing to see some more clips of Wembley.
:07:27. > :07:42.Great skill! We have seen no Crystal Palace made it through to the final,
:07:43. > :07:54.to know we can turn our attention to Manchester United. Rooney In
:07:55. > :07:55.stoppage time to surely win at foreign Manchester United and he
:07:56. > :08:11.does. He vows Rooney. Magnificent goal
:08:12. > :08:19.from Rooney! That is a very special streak.
:08:20. > :08:36.A second goal for Manchester United, Mata.
:08:37. > :08:49.The rather overplayed that. He lives Rashford. Absolutely brilliant.
:08:50. > :09:03.Equally brilliant goal from an emerging Manchester United talent.
:09:04. > :09:10.Martial, the chance to win it. He does. That will surely do it for
:09:11. > :09:24.Manchester United. They are in the final. Martial Has been on fire
:09:25. > :09:28.recently. I think he may be the main man today. Sorry, Crystal Palace
:09:29. > :09:40.fans. The teams will make each other in 1990. 26 years later, Rob is a
:09:41. > :09:56.proud father taking his son to the match this time. We have always had
:09:57. > :10:06.been to the games together. We have the same seat in the stand. How are
:10:07. > :10:15.you feeling about going to a merchant which they will be 90,000
:10:16. > :10:20.people the. The build-up in 1990 was so huge. It was absolutely manic. It
:10:21. > :10:43.was an amazing game. Crystal Palace took the lead. It was
:10:44. > :10:50.a bit painful. But we equalised. Get in!
:10:51. > :11:01.And then we went into the lead with Mark Hughes. But then he and rate
:11:02. > :11:10.came on as a substitute for Crystal Palace and changed the game around.
:11:11. > :11:20.My heart sank. A full claim, it was 2-2. Then, in extra time, he scored
:11:21. > :11:27.again for Crystal Palace. I was disbelieving.
:11:28. > :11:39.But then Mark Hughes came to the rescue and scored again. 3-3.
:11:40. > :11:54.And what a match. Back then, they had to have a replay. Nowadays, it
:11:55. > :12:02.would just go to a penalty shoot out. Manchester United won the
:12:03. > :12:06.replay with this goal. The has been some amazing goals through this
:12:07. > :12:17.competition, and not just from the two finalists.
:12:18. > :12:32.Payet. Absolutely brilliant. That is quite fantastic.
:12:33. > :12:59.She was great strength. That is a brilliant goal!
:13:00. > :13:12.He needs some support. Actually, he has beaten all three of them. All,
:13:13. > :13:21.that is amazing. Allen! No, it is not just Wembley hosting Silver real
:13:22. > :13:22.we have this weekend. Here are some of the trophies you have been
:13:23. > :13:35.picking up. Charlie won Player of the Year. He
:13:36. > :13:44.scored 50 goals in a season. Here is the man of the match trophy. It has
:13:45. > :13:57.also been a week of schools finals in the United Kingdom. There were
:13:58. > :14:08.some incredible matches. The final ended up 5-4. It was an amazing
:14:09. > :14:14.game. For primary schools, the German final was at Goodison Park,
:14:15. > :14:21.Everton. They get a taste of what it was like. We have got a special
:14:22. > :14:26.episode next Saturday with the full story of the tournament. You do not
:14:27. > :14:33.want to miss that. That is all we have time for today. If you want
:14:34. > :14:35.more build-up, the BBC have got it all covered. Goodbye from no.
