The 2008 FA Cup Final was a football match held at Wembley Stadium on 17 May 2008 and was the final match of the 2007–08 FA Cup competition.The match was the 127th FA Cup Final, and the second to be held at the new Wembley Stadium since its redevelopment. The match was contested by Portsmouth and Cardiff City, with Portsmouth winning 1–0. This was the first time that the two sides have ever met in the competition, as both teams were aiming to win the FA Cup for the second time, Cardiff having won it in 1927 and Portsmouth in 1939.It was the first time since 1995 that a club from outside the "Big Four" had won the FA Cup. Furthermore, had Cardiff won, they would have been the first club from outside the top division of English football to have won the competition since West Ham United in 1980.
The winning team received £1 million in prize money.As in the past few years, the players voted Player of the Round in every round from the First Qualifying Round to the Semi-finals will be present and given VIP hospitality for themselves and a guest.Although Cardiff City are considered a Welsh club and only hold associate membership with the Football Association, should they have won the 2008 FA Cup they would have been allowed to compete in the 2008–09 UEFA Cup.
The FA announced that, before the game began, the Welsh national anthem, "Land of My Fathers" (Welsh: "Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau") would be played, along with the traditional "God Save the Queen" and "Abide with Me".The Welsh anthem was sung by Katherine Jenkins, while Lesley Garrett sang "God Save the Queen", and the two duetted on "Abide with Me".
