The Rams lead the first half, with receivers Odell Beckham Jr. and Cooper Kupp scoring the first two touchdowns of the day.

Kupp holds the game’s Most Valuable Player title, finishing with eight catches for 92 yards and two scores. He made his second touchdown of the game when fellow quarterback Matthew Stafford passed him the ball.

“I just don’t feel deserving of this. God is so good. I’m just so thankful for the guys I get to be around, for the coaches, my family. I don’t know what to say.”

Then on the first play of the second half, Joe Burrow, the Bengals’ young star who led his team from 17-13, tossed a 75-yard touchdown to receiver Tee Higgins.

Los Angeles had spent much time behind Cincinnati after the Bengals started the third quarter with a long touchdown pass and attempted to control Los Angeles for as much of the second half as possible. In the end, the Rams came back by scoring a touchdown with less than two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.

The team stopped Joe Burrow and was forced to throw an incomplete pass as he faced pressure from Ram’s pass rusher, Aaron Donald in the game’s final moments. As a result, the ball was back over the Rams and directed to a 23-20 victory. Following the game, it was the team’s fifth Super Bowl trip.

Similarly, this is the second time that the Rams won the Super Bowl title in franchise history. Earlier, the team won its first title in 2000 when the team was based in St. Louis and defeated the Tennessee Titans in Atlanta.

Also, it was the second achievement for a team playing in its own stadium. Last year, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Kansas City Chiefs at Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium. On the other hand, it was the third Super Bowl visit for the Bengals since 1989. Sadly, they’ve lost all three.
