The FA Cup – Pride, Passion, History, Giant Killing: Video

The third round of the FA Cup kicks off this Saturday. For many soccer fans, myself included, it’s one of the best weekends in the year when you get to see several teams you normally don’t see do battle against the giants of English football. Saturday’s FA Cup coverage kicks off with Arsenal at home against Leeds United, and many eyes will be watching to see if Leeds can beat Arsenal like they defeated Manchester United last season in the same tournament.

To build up the excitement for the third round of this majestic tournament, The FA has produced a video (see above) which includes some highlights from previous years of the competition as well as interviews with some of the famous names in English football.

Soccer fans in the United States can view the TV schedule for FA Cup games featuring Premier League teams.
