Facebook to stream FA Cup match

Facebook will stream live football on its UK site for the first time tomorrow, when it airs the opening match of the English FA Cup tournament.

A live stream from the Ascot United versus Wembley FC match will be available via an app on Facebook’s UK site. Budweiser, the FA Cup’s sponsor, struck the deal. The match, which kicks off at 19:45, will only be available to users aged over 18 years.
