The 1962 FA Cup Final took place on 5 May 1962 at Wembley Stadium and was won by Tottenham Hotspur over Burnley by a 3–1 scoreline. Due to the lack of passion and excitement replaced by patience and cautious play the final was dubbed The Chessboard Final. Tottenham took to the field as holders having won the League and FA Cup Double in 1961. They had finished the 1962 league campaign in third position. Burnley finished runners-up in the league that season behind Ipswich Town.
