Manchester United have won the FA cup 14 times (13 times for the men's team, once for the women's team). The programme for Manchester United's first victory in 1909 remains one of the most sought after by professional collectors. For both of the club's most famous managers, Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex Ferguson, the FA Cup represented their first major silverware at Manchester United (in 1948 and 1990 respectively).

Manchester United are the only club to have reached an FA Cup final in every decade since the war. The 1990's, under Sir Alex Ferguson, was the most successful FA Cup era for the club. During this decade Manchester United reached five finals, winning four of these, culminating in the treble session of 1999 (with Premier League and European Cup victories in the same year).

Manchester United have twice been taken to replays - in 1983 (Vs Brighton & Hove Albion) and 1990 (Vs Crystal Palace). With the FA Cup final now decided on penalties, this will never happen again.

The last men's FA Cup final win was under the leadership of Erik ten Hag in 2024. By beating fierce rivals Manchester City in the 2023-24 final, ten Hag secured his job for a further year. The women's team won the Women's FA Cup final in the same year, representing their first major honours.
