NE,Patriots, 53회 Super Bowl 승자. 6번째 승리로 새로운 기록. 나도 전북미의 흥분의 도가니속에...

Super Bowl 경기가 오후 6시에 시작되면서, 10시 30분경 끝날때까지 나는 TV에 붙어서 화면만 응시하고 있었다. Tom Brady를 SanFrancisco 49ners에 있을때부터 그의 경기를 봐 왔었기 때문에 그의 이름을 기억하고 있었다.  수박만한 Honey Dew 한개를 다 먹어치우기도 했었다.

뉴잉글랜드, Patriots가 지금막 끝난 53회 Super Bowl에서, LA Rams를 13-3으로 물리치고 승리를 차지했다. 오늘밤 경기는 Atlanta에 있는 Mercedes-Benz경기장에서 전미국과 세계가 지켜보는 가운데 진행 됐었다.  Quarter Back, Tom Brady는 6번째 Super Bowl의 승자가 되여, 새로운 기록을 세웠고, Bill Belichick는 66세의 노익장으로 오늘 게임의 Head Coach로 활약하여 이또한 새로운 기록을 세웠다.

전경기를 지켜 보았는데, LA Rams는 Quarter Back, Goff와 완전한 호흡이  맞지 않은것으로 이해 됐지만, 그역시 훌륭한 젊은 선수로 보였었다. 노련한 Tom Brady처럼 연륜이 쌓이면 좋은 결과가 있을 것으로 생각됐다.

양팀의 선수들은 돈방석에 앉을 것으로 기대하면서도, 특히 New England의 Quarter Back, Tom Brady는 오늘 게임의 승자가 될줄은 미쳐 기대 하지 못했었다고 실토하기도했었다. 나는평상시에는 이게임에 관심이 없지만, Super Bowl은 매년 꼭 보면서 즐겼었는데, 게임 자체가 무척 거칠기는 하지만 젊음의 상징을 그경기에서 발견하고, 나도 그경기에 선수로 참가하여 같이 뛰고 있다는 상상을 즐겨하기 때문이다.


트럼프 대통령의 막내아들,Barron Trump가 현재12살인데, American Football 운동을 좋아해서 아들이  운동할수있도록 허가하기까지에는 많은 고민을 했었다는 고충을 털어놓는 아버지로서의 고뇌를  많이했었다는(CBS와대담) 뉴스는 많은  생각을 하게한다.  오늘의 게임에서도 Patriots팀의 선수한명이 팔이 부러지는 사고가 있었다. 



They have now won six Super Bowls together, extending their record for the most by a head coach and starting quarterback combination. With the win, the Patriots are tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers for the most Super Bowl titles in NFL history.
"It's unbelievable to win this game," Brady said.
Brady now has won more Super Bowls than any other player in history, surpassing Pro Football Hall of Famer Charles Haley (five). At 41 years old, he's the oldest starting quarterback to win a Super Bowl, eclipsing Peyton Manning, who was 39 when he won Super Bowl 50.
Belichick is the oldest head coach to win a Super Bowl at age 66, and no head coach has won more Super Bowls than him. Now, he joins George Halas and Curly Lambeau as the only NFL coaches with six championships since the league began postseason play in 1933.
This was the pair's ninth Super Bowl appearance together, the most title games for any head coach and starting quarterback duo in NFL history.
The Rams had the No. 2 scoring offense in the NFL, while the Patriots were ranked fourth. But instead of a shootout, scoring came at a premium. It's the first Super Bowl without a touchdown through the first three quarters.
A Stephen Gostkowski 42-yard field goal was the only scoring in the first half. The 3-0 score was the second-lowest scoring first half in Super Bowl history. Only Super Bowl IX, when the Pittsburgh Steelers led the Minnesota Vikings 2-0, was lower.
Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein's 53-yarder tied it with 2:11 left in the third quarter.
Then came another classic Brady-led drive.
It started with a completed pass to tight end Rob Gronkowski for 18 yards. The crowd, which was majority Patriots fans, started chanting, "Brady! Brady!"
Brady then hit Julian Edelman and Rex Burkhead for 13 and seven yards, respectively. Another throw to Gronkowski for 29 yards set up first-and-goal from the 2-yard line. Sony Michel ran it in from there for the touchdown with seven minutes to go.
The drive was five plays, 69 yards, and it took 2 minutes, 49 seconds, in which Brady went 4-for-4 for 67 yards.
Los Angeles tried to respond with a lengthy drive of its own, but quarterback Jared Goff was intercepted by Stephon Gilmore at the New England 4-yard line.
A 41-yard field goal by Gostkowski sealed it with 1:12 to go.
Super Bowl LIII marked a rematch of Super Bowl XXXVI, when New England defeated the then-St. Louis Rams 20-17 on February 3, 2002. The Rams, who moved back to Los Angeles in 2016, were aiming for their second Super Bowl title and their first back out West.
Since the hiring of head coach Sean McVay, the youngest head coach in Super Bowl history at age 33, this was their second consecutive year in the playoffs.
