Prince William is having a sporty Saturday with Prince George.

The Prince of Wales, 41, attended the FA Cup final between Manchester City and Manchester United at Wembley Stadium in London on May 25 with his 10-year-old son, who is also a soccer fan. William is president of the Football Association, the governing body of soccer in England and Wales, and awards the trophy to the winning team.

In photographs taken at the stadium, the Prince of Wales greeted the teams ahead of the game, including shaking hands with United’s attacking midfielder Bruno Fernandes and the team’s manager, Erik ten Hag, as well as City midfielder Phil Foden.

William was also photographed sitting next to Prince George as they watched the match together. The Prince of Wales wore a dark blue suit for the occasion, which he teamed with a white shirt and a red, white and blue striped tie. George wore a similarly dark suit along with a blue and white striped tie and appeared to be intently watching the game, which ultimately saw Manchester United win 2-1 over their Manchester City rivals.
