Tomorrow sees soccer history being made, as the first match of this season’s FA Cup tournament will become the first game broadcast live on Facebook.
The match, between Ascot United and Wembley FC, would normally attract a crowd of around 90 supporters – yup, just 90! However, tomorrow’s fixture will be accessible to Facebook’s massive 700 million-strong user base.
The 90-minute live stream will be accessible via a Facebook application created by Budweiser, sponsors of the long-running English cup tournament. Head to the Budweiser UK Facebook Fan Page tomorrow at 7.30pm BST to watch the FA Cup match live (only if you’re over the legal drinking age!).
