Overview
- TNT Sports is the lead FA Cup broadcaster this season under a multi-year agreement that covers live matches from the first round through the final.
- Free-to-air coverage has been reduced as the BBC shows a limited slate of games and ITV no longer carries live FA Cup fixtures.
- Almost every tie is available to stream on discovery+, excluding matches in the traditional Saturday 3pm blackout window.
- Fans on social media condemned TNT’s multi-game Goals Show for messy presentation and pundits talking over each other.
- The third round featured notable upsets, including Macclesfield knocking out holders Crystal Palace and Wrexham eliminating Nottingham Forest on penalties, with the fourth-round draw due Monday.
