The 2013–14 FA Cup (also known as The FA Cup with Budweiser for sponsorship reasons) was the 133rd season of the FA Cup, the main domestic cup competition in English football, and the oldest football knock-out competition in the world. It was sponsored by Budweiser for a third consecutive season.^[1] 737 clubs from England and Wales entered the competition, which began with the extra preliminary round on 16 August.^[2][3] For the first time in the history of the FA Cup, a team from Guernsey entered the competition, Guernsey F.C.,^[4] who made it to the second round qualifying.

Football League Championship side Wigan Athletic were the defending champions, but they were eliminated by eventual winners Arsenal in the semi-finals. They won the FA Cup while still in the Premier League, beating Manchester City 1–0 in the 2013 final;^[5] they were relegated just days after the final.

The final was played on 17 May 2014 at Wembley Stadium, and saw Arsenal face Hull City. Arsenal were 2–0 down within the first 8 minutes, however, they were able to equalise through a free kick dispatched by Santi Cazorla and another goal by Laurent Koscielny, taking the match into extra time. Aaron Ramsey would score the winner for Arsenal in the 109th minute to give the club their 11th FA Cup, a tied record together with Manchester United.^[6]

As the winners of the FA Cup, Arsenal were entitled to play in the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League group stage. However, Arsenal had already qualified for the 2014–15 UEFA Champions League after finishing fourth in the 2013–14 Premier League so Hull City took the Europa League place as the FA Cup runners-up. Since Hull City did not win the Cup, they did not qualify for the group stage (as the Cup winners would do). Instead they qualified for the third qualifying round and the other English teams already qualified for Europa League, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur, moved up one round to the Europa League group stage and play-off round respectively.
