FA Cup quiz: Can you name every FA Cup-winning team since 1872?

The FA Cup's rich history spans 154 years, and to celebrate the third round this weekend, BBC Sport has produced its biggest ever quiz that puts your knowledge of the world's oldest national football competition to the test. How many winners can you name since the tournament began in 1871-72?

From Wanderers' first-ever title win to Manchester City's most recent triumph, the list of FA Cup winners is a long and storied one. With 144 editions under its belt, it's a daunting task, but we've got just over two minutes to test your memory.

Which teams have lifted the iconic trophy in the past? From the early days of English football when Wanderers claimed their first title to the modern era, where sides like Manchester City and Chelsea have dominated, can you name them all?

I'm loving the FA Cup's history, it's like they say, knowledge is power! ๐Ÿค“ I was just talking to my friend about this and we were trying to remember all the winners since '72... it's crazy how many teams have lifted that trophy over the years! Wanderers' first win back in 1872 is so cool, and then you've got Manchester City's recent wins too. The quiz sounds like a lot of fun, I'm definitely gonna give it a go. Maybe we'll all become FA Cup experts in no time ๐Ÿคž!
 
I donโ€™t usually comment but I think itโ€™s kinda crazy that they made a big quiz to celebrate the FA Cup ๐Ÿคฏ. I mean, 154 years is a looong time, right? It's like trying to remember every single Pokรฉmon from back in the day โ€“ you gotta keep track of so many teams and their history! ๐Ÿ˜‚ But seriously, itโ€™s cool that they made something fun for us to do while we're watching our favorite teams play. I donโ€™t know about a lot of the older teams but I can definitely name some of the more recent winners like Manchester City and Liverpool ๐Ÿ†. Maybe this quiz will help me learn more about football history ๐Ÿค“?
 
I think it's kinda cool that they're having this massive quiz to celebrate the FA Cup's history ๐ŸŽ‰. I mean, 154 years is a long time, right? It's crazy to think about how many winners there are - 144 and counting! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Manchester City winning recently is awesome, but what about all those other teams like Arsenal, Spurs, and Liverpool? They've had some epic moments too ๐Ÿคฉ. And can you imagine being a Wanderers fan back in the day when they first won it? That's like, totally historic stuff ๐Ÿ’ฅ. I'm gonna take a shot at this quiz and see how many winners I can name, wanna join me? ๐Ÿ†
 
I'm so stoked it's FA Cup quiz time ๐Ÿคฉ! I mean, can you even believe we're talking about a competition that's been going on for like, 154 years?! That's insane! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ And they've got this huge quiz with all the winners since like, forever! ๐Ÿคฏ My granddad used to play footy and he could name half the winners from memory - it's amazing what you remember when your old man is telling you stories over a pint down the pub ๐Ÿ˜Š. I'm definitely going to take that quiz and see how many I can get right... wish me luck! โšฝ๏ธ

I remember when I was a kid, watching old videos of Stanley Matthews winning the FA Cup with Blackpool in 1953... now they're asking you to name every winner since 1871-72? that's like trying to count all the grains of sand on the beach ๐ŸŒ€. I'm sure most people can't even remember half of 'em, but hey, it's a fun challenge ๐Ÿ˜Š. My granddad used to tell me stories about his favourite player, Dave Hickson, who won the FA Cup with Blackpool in 1950... nostalgia alert! ๐Ÿ’ญ
 
I'm loving this idea of a quiz about the FA Cup ๐Ÿค”! 154 years is a crazy amount of history, right? I mean, can you even imagine what it was like back then? They should've done some kind of special edition or documentary series on that. Anyway, the quiz sounds like so much fun - I'm definitely gonna give it a shot and see how many winners I can name ๐Ÿ‘. It's interesting to think about all those different teams over the years... I bet some people would be super knowledgeable about this stuff ๐Ÿค“
 
๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ‘€ I mean, who doesn't love an old-school competition like the FA Cup? It's crazy that it's been going on for 154 years! The history is just so rich - from Wanderers winning back in 1872 to Manchester City's recent win... it's like a never-ending story of ups and downs. I'm intrigued by this quiz, but I'm not sure how well I'll do, tbh ๐Ÿค”. I've been following the Premier League for years, but my knowledge of the early days is a bit fuzzy... guess I need to brush up on some old-school football facts ๐Ÿ˜…. Maybe it's time to start re-watching some classic matches and learning more about those legendary teams ๐Ÿ’ก
 
I mean what's the point of doing a massive quiz like that? It's just gonna be a bunch of old guys reminiscing about history. And what's with making it so easy? Two minutes is hardly enough time to really test someone's knowledge. It feels like they're just trying to get more views on their website. I'd rather see them focus on actual in-depth analysis or interviews with the players/teams instead of fluff pieces like this. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’ธ
 
I love how much history is packed into the FA Cup! I mean, 154 years is a long time ๐Ÿ˜Š. Growing up, my grandpa was always telling me about this tournament and how it's like the crown jewel of English football. He used to watch Wanderers play all the time when he was younger, and he could rattle off so many winners from back in the day... I think he even knew who won in 1972 (Arsenal, btw) ๐Ÿค“. But what's crazy is how it's still competitive today - Manchester City beating out Chelsea to lift that trophy? Respect! ๐Ÿ™Œ
 
Omg I'm low-key obsessed with the FA Cup ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ‘! I mean, 154 years is like, whoa... that's a ton of history right there! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ I've been following the tournament for ages and it's so cool to see all the different teams come together. I'm definitely gonna give this quiz a try and test my knowledge ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ‘€! I can name a bunch of winners already, but I know there are some obscure ones that might stump me ๐Ÿ˜…. If anyone needs help or just wanna chat about footy, let's get the conversation started ๐Ÿ’ฌ!
