The Los Angeles Rams have won the second Super Bowl in their history. They beat (23-20) the Cincinnati Bengals, at the end of an NFL final with unbearable suspense, in Inglewood. Crowned for the first time in 2000, the Californian team succeeds the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which they eliminated in the play-off, sending the legendary quarterback Tom Brady to retirement at the same time.
For the formation of Ohio, this defeat on the last step is the third following those conceded in 1982 and 1989 once morest the San Francisco 49ers.
This Super Bowl, 56th of the name, had its share of twists and turns. The Rams didn’t really feel like they were playing at home as the brand new $5.5 billion SoFi in Inglewood, packed with 70,000 spectators, was striped in orange and black and so many fans Bengals made themselves heard.
The start of the game was not to the advantage of the “visitors”, however, since the Rams managed two touchdowns in the first and second quarters. But Cincinnati responded immediately.
Immediately restarted, the match then experienced a big turning point, when Beckham Jr injured his left knee on his own. In October 2020, while playing with the Cleveland Browns, he suffered a cruciate ligament rupture once morest these same Bengals. This curse momentarily knocked out his people.
Burrow sack eight times
Because following the halftime show, the Bengals made a thunderous start to the second period. From his first throw, “Joe Cool” sent the kind of “Hallelujah” pass that we generally try as a last resort and 70 yards further, Tee Higgins, author of a double, caught it to go to the touchdown. A superb action.
Whereupon Stafford, in turn maneuvering for the Rams, was intercepted for the second time in the game. But his defenders made the difference, putting Burrow (Bengals) through hell, who was sacked eight times, breaking record for a Super Bowl.
The last quarter was on the line and finally, Stafford, on borrowed time, found Cooper Kupp, logically designated MVP, for the decisive touchdown 85 seconds from the end.
