The Cup has evolved over the years and now offers lower-tier sides an opportunity to face off with some of the finest teams in the English topflight.

The 2023/24 season saw Manchester United cart home the trophy after seeing off rivals Man City in an epic final staged at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, May 25.
