The FA have named the referee for this season's FA Cup final.

Manchester City and Manchester United will meet at Wembley on Saturday May 25 in a repeat of last season's final.

And officiating on the day will be Andy Madley.

"It's an absolute delight and honour to receive this appointment," he told TheFA.com.

"Domestically, it's the biggest game of any referee's career, the one we all dream of when we complete the referee course. I can only imagine what it will be like to lead the two teams out in front of a sold-out Wembley.

"To receive this appointment off the back of my hard work this season is truly humbling."
