The winners of Saturday’s FA Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea will collect the trophy on the Wembley pitch without a presentation party, to minimise the risk of spreading COVID-19.
The winning team traditionally lifts the trophy in the stadium’s Royal Box.
The match is being played without fans because of concerns over COVID-19.
This year’s final is dedicated to raising mental health awareness, with several themed events before kick-off.

The match, renamed the Heads Up FA Cup final, is the culmination of a season-long campaign on mental health led by FA president Prince William, in conjunction with a group of charities in the Heads Together initiative.
Writing in the FA Cup final programme, The Duke of Cambridge says: “We all have mental health, and we can all do more to support each other – and that starts with talking.”
