Dearie me what a tackle that is! Vinnie Jones goes right through Steve McMahon, terribly late. How on earth has referee Brian Hill not booked him there? A dreadful challenge.

Those newspapers predicting an early mauling for the Dons will be disappointed so far. The underdogs have looked efficient so far, very well organised.

That will sting! Steve Nicol slams a hurried clearance into the face of team-mate Steve McMahon. He needs the magic sponge to revive him. But it's a free-kick for Wimbledon, dangerous place.

Dennis Wise to take. He curls one - just over!

Libby Dawes:, external If you have not been watching #FACupRewind of the 1988 Cup final, i feel for you. THIS is amazing TV.

Joe T:, external Watching old footage from the 1988 FA Cup final. Love the magic feel, Wimbledon were proper mad dogs back then!

Brian Elliott:, external Not sure how my brain is going to handle the old passback rule.

Well that's what Liverpool can do! They carve Wimbledon open with a slick counter-attack, the ball going through Peter Beardsley to John Barnes on the left wing. Barnes stands it up, John Aldridge is steaming in but he heads over after great pressure from Alan Cork! Goal-saving challenge from Cork.

Some fans boo a negative pass back to the keeper from the Liverpool midfield. It's certainly a tactic which divides football fans. I wonder if anything will ever be done about it? It would certainly make life much more difficult for defenders if they couldn't let off steam with a backpass.

Lovely feet from Alan Hansen to break up an early Wimbledon attack, before keeper Dave Beasant launches the ball 80-odd yards. A trademark Route One attack.

Chance here - John Fashanu has a half sighter after Gary Ablett is robbed of the ball, but his shot is tame.

I hope you made it to your seat in time Chris. Your lads will be in for a tough afternoon, that's for sure. But you never know. The pristine pitch can surely only help this genius side of Liverpool midfielders.

Chris from Epsom: I'm at the ground now, can't believe how hot it is. Walked up Wembley way twice. There are 98,000 here and we only make up about 10,000 (if that)! The phrase 'got any spares?' (tickets) from scousers all the way here on the train will live with me forever. Brings a lump to the throat just writing this. Come on you Dons.

Game on! The 107th FA Cup final is under way.

Dave Beasant switches the sides around, here we go...

Here we go then. What scenes at Wembley. John Motson reminds us that some of the terracing will be replaced by the 1989 final, bringing the attendance down to 88,000. Plenty of years left in the old place yet.

I have to say, the access we at the BBC have had with both clubs all day has been truly first-class. Long may it continue.

Everyone ready? The Wembley pitch looks perfect as you'd expect. First man to go down with cramp in the 80th minute? It's a tradition.

Andy Stevenson:, external So far, the #facuprewind has had Des Lynam, classical music on a pre-match montage and the Old Wembley. This is wonderful.

Syd with a 'y':, external Remember as a kid how great it was on Cup Final day. Cameras on both coaches. Interviews on the pitch. Boss day!

"Some people down here are saying that Wimbledon can pull off an upset today.

"They would be the biggest outsiders to win in years. You can get 11/4 on a Wimbledon win, with Liverpool 4/1 on to complete the double."

What did Princess Diana have to say to Vinnie Jones? She is certainly in chatty mood, sharing a few words with all 22 players before making her way back up to the new Royal Box.

Princess Diana is the esteemed Royal guest this afternoon and Wembley stands as one for the National Anthem. Almost game time. Prepare to be entertained by the clash of styles...

Wimbledon named their team last night. No changes, so Clive Goodyear gets the nod at right-back.

Liverpool have spent more time in that hotel in Watford than the cleaning staff. Incredibly, this is Liverpool's 23rd game at Wembley since 1950.

The teams are out on the pitch - to a huge ovation.
