The Wikipedia article of the day for April 23, 2020 is 1927 FA Cup Final.
The 1927 FA Cup Final was an association football match between Cardiff City and Arsenal on 23 April 1927 at the Empire Stadium, the original Wembley Stadium (pictured). With 91,206 in attendance, the final was the showpiece match of English football's primary cup competition, the Football Association Challenge Cup. A concert held before the game included "Abide with Me"; singing this song before the match has since become a cup final tradition. For the first time, the final was broadcast on the radio by the BBC. Cardiff, one of the few Welsh teams taking part in the cup competition, won the match 1–0; the goal was credited to Hughie Ferguson after his shot slipped out of the hands of Arsenal goalkeeper Dan Lewis. The victory remains the only occasion the trophy, which was previously known as the "English Cup", has been won by a team based outside England. Cardiff did not reach the FA Cup final again until 2008. visite : https://bit.ly/2DpUWBs
