100 years of Wembley Stadium told through 100 matches.
The 1923 FA Cup final - aka the White Horse final - was the first football match played at the British Empire Exhibition Stadium. Although best-remembered for non-playing reasons - notably its vast, well-beyond-capacity crowd, which had to be marshalled by a policeman atop a white horse - that afternoon marked the historic opening chapter of the stadium's long and eventful history, of the stadium soon to be known simply as Wembley.
