    Football Association Challenge Cup , also known as FA Cup, is the world’s most traditionally enriched cup and is held in England.  

    The FA Cup was first played in 1871-72 and the tournament was named after the English Football Association, FA. In contrast to the League Cup, the FA Cup is often referred to as ’the real’ Cup Challenge. Manchester United holds the record of winning 11 times, while Arsenal F.C. has won 10 times.

    The tournament was canceled twice, due to World War 1 in 1916-1919, and World War 2 in 1940-1945, but is still going strong.
