BBC to screen Women's FA Cup Final

The Women's FA Cup Final will be shown live on BBC Two on Sunday, 26 May. The final comes before the European Women's Championship, which will be live across the BBC in July.

Barbara Slater, director of BBC Sport, said: "We're very pleased to renew our association with the Women's FA Cup Final and offer live coverage of this key fixture to viewers.

"The Olympics provided a great showcase for the sport and demonstrated that there is a strong audience appetite to watch the top women's teams in action.

"So we're looking forward to bringing more women's football to audiences on the BBC across TV, radio and online this year."
