1927 FA Cup Final
The 1927 FA Cup final was between Cardiff City and Arsenal F.C.. Arsenal always made sure that a goalkeeper's jersey is washed, but it didn't go well in that final. Dan Lewis let in a soft goal as Cardiff won 1-0. He later blamed the mistake on the ball slipping from his grasp and over the line as it brushed against the shiny surface of the new jumper.

Famous quotes containing the words cup and/or final:
“There is not enough exercise in this way of life. I try to make up by active gymnastics before I dress when I get up, by walking rapidly in the lower hall and the greenhouse after each meal for perhaps five to ten minutes, and a good hand rubbing before going to bed. I eat moderately; drink one cup of coffee at breakfast and one cup of tea at lunch and no other stimulant. My health is now, and usually, excellent.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The final upshot of thinking is the exercise of volition, and of this thought no longer forms a part; but belief is only a stadium of mental action, an effect upon our nature due to thought, which will influence future thinking.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
