The first step: draw lots to determine the opponent.
In the FA Cup, participating clubs need to draw lots to decide their opponents. This process usually takes place a few weeks before the game. The result of the lottery determines the opponent in the third round of the club, as well as the time and place of the game.
Step 2: Prepare for the competition.
After determining the opponent, the club needs to start preparing for the game. This process includes formulating game tactics, training and adjusting players' state. The coach and players of the club will carefully study the opponent's tactics and the characteristics of the players and formulate corresponding coping strategies.
Step 3: Competition
Competition is the most important link in the third round of the FA Cup. Every participating club needs to go all out to win. In the game, players need to play their best, control the rhythm of the game as much as possible, create opportunities and score goals. The coach needs to adjust tactics and players' positions according to the game situation in order to win the final victory.
Step 4: promotion or elimination
After the game, the winning club will advance to the next round, while the losing club will be eliminated. This is the final result of the third round of the FA Cup. For senior clubs, they will continue to advance towards FA Cup honors and bonuses. For the eliminated clubs, they can only go back to the club to continue their efforts and strive for next year's opportunities.
