The1955 FA Cup final was the 74th final of theFA Cup. It took place on 7 May 1955 atWembley Stadium and was contested betweenNewcastle United andManchester City.

Newcastle won the match 3–1, thus winning the FA Cup for the third time in five years and the sixth time in all.Jackie Milburn scored Newcastle's first goal after 45 seconds (a record for a Wembley final that would stand until1997), beforeBobby Johnstone equalised for City just before half-time.Bobby Mitchell restored Newcastle's lead in the 52nd minute, andGeorge Hannah extended it seven minutes later.

The match was virtually decided in the 17th minute when City fullbackJimmy Meadows attempted a tackle on Mitchell, only to sustain a serious leg injury which forced him to be stretchered off five minutes later (and also forced him to retire from playing). Assubstitutes were not allowed in English football at the time, City had to play the rest of the match with ten players.

As of 2025, this remains Newcastle's last FA Cup win and was their last major domestic honour until the2025 EFL Cup. Since 1955, Newcastle have appeared in three FA Cup finals (1974, 1998 and 1999) and two FA Cup semi finals (2000 and 2005).[1][2]
