F.A. Cup live
The F.A. Cup final, at Wembley Stadium in London, will be screened live early tomorrow morning. Highlights will be screened later, in “Sport on One,” beginning at 9 a.m. The “Sport on One Special” will begin at 1.40 a.m., with the kick-off scheduled for around 2 a.m. Watford, backed by its wealthy pop star chairman, Elton John, will carry the hopes of many as it faces mighty Everton in the showpiece of the English football season, televised live for a huge world audience. When Graham Taylor leads Watford out, it will be the climax of his managerial career, in which he has taken Watford from the depths of the fourth division of the English league to runner-up in the first division and to the team’s first appearance at Wembley. Throughout his six-year period of success he has remained a man known for his honesty, honour and articulation, and it is for this reason that many neutral fans will be cheering for Watford.
