JAKARTA - The FA Cup final, which will be held next year, is in danger of being postponed. This is related to the coronation of King Charles.

Quoted from the Daily Star, King Charles' coronation is planned to be held on Saturday, June 3, 2023 at a ceremony at Westminster Abbey in London. Apparently, the FA Cup final will also be played on that day at Wembley Stadium.

There is speculation that the FA Cup final has the potential to be pushed back for a day or two. There are several factors that corroborate this speculation.

In addition to respecting the historic day for King Charles, the FA Cup final must change tradition if it continues to be played on the same day.

In fact, Prince William will be present to give medals to the players after the FA Cup final. Of course, Prince William has a great chance of being absent due to his father's coronation.

The FA Cup is the oldest football competition in the world aged 151 years. This competition is called and run directly by the English Football Association (FA) which refers to men's soccer clubs in England, while women are also held but with different names.

The FA Cup was first held in the 1871-72 season. This tournament is open to all teams competing in the Premier League, Football League, Football Conference and Step 3-5 clubs as well as several Step 6 clubs selected from the National League System.

Liverpool are the defending champions after beating Chelsea in the 2022 final.
