The 2013 Football League Cup Final was a football match between Bradford City and Swansea City, which took place on 24 February 2013 at Wembley Stadium in London. It was the final match of the 2012–13 Football League Cup, the 53rd season of the Football League Cup, a football competition for the 92 teams in the Premier League and the Football League.
Bradford City, of League Two, were appearing in their first major cup final since they won the 1911 FA Cup Final, and were the first fourth-tier side to reach the League Cup final since Rochdale in 1962.[4] Swansea City, of the Premier League, were appearing in their first major English cup final in their 101-year history.[2][5]
Swansea won the match 5–0, and qualified for the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League, entering in the third qualifying round.[6][7] Although based in Wales, their participation in the English football league system means they took one of the English berths in the competition.[8] It was the first time the League Cup had been won by a non-English club and the first time a major English cup had been won by a non-English club since Swansea's rivals Cardiff City won the FA Cup in 1927.[9]
