The FA Cup Final in the 1969-70 season was contested by Chelsea, who beat Watford 5 - 1 in the semi-finals of the competition, and Leeds United, who overcame Manchester United 1 - 0 in their semi-final. The Final finished in a 1 - 1 draw the first time it was played, on April 11, 1970, meaning that the game had to be replayed for the first time since 1912. The replay of the Final took place on April 29, and was watched by 28 million people. Chelsea went behind after 35 minutes, but equalized after 78 minutes, sending the match into extra time. Chelsea sealed the match in the 14th minute of the first half of extra time, with a goal from David Webb. Webb went on to manage Chelsea for a brief period in 1993, while the club was threatened with relegation, but, after the team's performances improved, they finished in 11th place in the table. His contract was not renewed.

The 1979 FA Cup Final was a football match played on 12 May 1979 at Wembley Stadium. The match was contested by Arsenal and Manchester United. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest-ever finishes in an FA Cup final.[1][2] For over 85 minutes the game had been unremarkable, with Arsenal taking a 2-0 half time lead through goals from Brian Talbot and Frank Stapleton. In the 86th minute, however, Gordon McQueen scored following a set-piece, and two minutes later Sammy McIlroy dribbled past two Arsenal players to score a dramatic equaliser. With the game poised for extra time, United's celebrations proved short-lived, as Alan Sunderland scored a last-minute winner, making the final result Arsenal 3-2 Manchester United. This match is often referred to as the "Five-minute Final".
