Final was decided over two legs from 1960-1966. From then on, as a single tie played at Wembley until 2000, at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff, from 2001. Replays were held at Hillsborough, Sheffield and Old Trafford, Manchester in 1977, Old Trafford in 1978, Villa Park, Birmingham 1981, Maine Road, Manchester in 1984 and Hillsbrough again in 1997. Nowadays no final replay is held, so if teams are still level at the end of extra time a penalty shoot-out is held, as in 2001.
