After nine months of dramatic football, Crystal Palace and Manchester City will play the FA Cup final on Saturday, 17 May.

Last month, Palace smashed Aston Villa in the first semi-final and Manchester City then edged past Nottingham Forest, which means they'll now face each other at Wembley Stadium.

For the FA Cup finals, tickets are in high demand as each club normally receives 30,000 tickets, meaning that just a third of Wembley's capacity is on general sale.
