Los Angeles Rams made an incredible comeback against the San Francisco 49ers and recorded a narrow win in the NFL Championship round. A win for the LA side meant the city is 3-0 up in the post-season against the San Francisco-based franchises in the United States. Los Angeles Lakers overcame the Warriors last season in the play-in game.

The Rams were 10 points behind, with around a minute to play against the Niners. However, as we all know about the NFL’s unpredictable nature, they managed to turn it around.

The Rams ended the game 20-17 in what was one of the best games of the season. But the Niners gave a tough fight and had the game in control for three quarters. But they couldn’t hold on to the lead and blanked in the final quarter. The win has now sealed a Super Bowl spot for the Rams at their own home in the coming month. This is the third time that an LA-based franchise has beaten a San Francisco team in the post-season.
