Commentary by Raymond Glendenning and Alan Clarke on the second half of the match From the Empire Stadium, Wembley There are several records involved in this match. Will Newcastle United beat the sixty-one-year-old record of Blackburn Rovers and win the Cup for the second year running? Will Arsenal be the first club to notch four wins at Wembley?
Both teams have obviously much to play for, and Arsenal will be out to avenge the defeat they suffered in 1932, when the Tynesiders beat them at Wembley by two goals to one.
