Next year's men's and women's FA Cup finals will take place at Wembley over the same weekend for the first time.

The women's final will be played on Sunday, 15 May 2022, the day after the men's match.

The 2021-22 women's competition is set to begin on 15 August with the delayed 2020-21 competition not due to finish until 5 December.

Manchester City are the holders of the women's FA Cup while Leicester City won this year's men's title.

Manchester City take on Leicester in the women's quarter-final on 29 September with Gareth Taylor's side aiming to win the competition for the third year in a row.

"The Vitality Women's FA Cup Final is one of the biggest occasions in the women's football calendar and an opportunity to showcase the very best players at one of the most famous venues in world football," said FA director of the women's professional game Kelly Simmons.

"I'm thrilled that we will have a whole weekend of world-class football at Wembley Stadium and I hope for a really big, vocal crowd to match the spectacle on the field."

“…and tonight doing the draw we have the scorer of one of the finals greatest ever goals, Leicester City’s Yuri Tielemans’.
