Gary Lineker says the return of live FA Cup football to the BBC from 2014 is "a marriage made in heaven".

The former England international and Match of the Day host says the tournament "fits on the BBC" and is delighted to be able to work on "the best domestic cup competition in world football" once more.

The BBC has secured a four-year shared rights deal with BT Sport that will see both broadcasters show the FA Cup from the start of the 2014-15 season, with the BBC streaming live games across online, connected TV, mobile and tablet devices.
