EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the moment of kick-off at the FA Cup Final of 1901, held at Crystal Palace on 20th April. The image features the two competing teams, Tottenham Hotspur and Sheffield United, lined up on the pitch, ready to commence the match. The FA Cup Final is considered the most prestigious domestic football competition in English football, and this tie was no exception. The Illustrated London News, a prominent British newspaper at the time, reported extensively on the event. Their coverage provides a fascinating insight into the atmosphere and excitement surrounding the match. The newspaper reported that the game began with "great spirit and determination" from both sides, with "splendid football" on display. The first half ended in a stalemate, with no goals scored. However, the second half saw both teams finding the back of the net twice, resulting in a thrilling 2-2 draw. The replay took place at Old Trafford on 24th April, with Sheffield United emerging as the victors. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of football in England and the enduring appeal of the FA Cup. The intricate details of the players' uniforms and the atmospheric setting of Crystal Palace transport us back to an era when football was a source of national pride and excitement.
