The 1946 FA Cup Final, the first since the start of the Second World War, was contested by Derby County and Charlton Athletic at Wembley. Derby won 4–1 after extra time, with goals from Bert Turner (an own goal), Peter Doherty and a double from Jackie Stamps. Turner's 86th-minute goal for Charlton, at the correct end this time, had forced extra time. When Derby County's Jack Stamps shot for goal, the ball burst en-route. Stamps went on to score twice with the new ball as Derby beat Charlton Athletic 4-1. A week earlier, when the same sides had met in the League, the match ball had also burst.
