I didn’t knew much about American football till about an year ago (still don’t know a lot) but I did made it a point to watch Super Bowl. Its supposed to be the Best of the Best. And I think, even with my limited understanding, it was a wonderful match.
Not knowing either way, I was rooting for the under-dogs, which were the Patriots (also because they beat Bay Area team, Raiders, in the Play Offs in questionable fashion, which kinda put off lots of folks in my office).
About the game, the first interception was neat, and the first touch down was good. At that point I think, Rams were too over-confident. At 3-17, everyone thought its over.
Then Rams came back with 10-17. Afterwards, I was unable to understand, why did the ball again went to Rams, to allow them to go 17-17? Maybe its something I haven’t figured out, yet.

In the fourth quarter.. the commentators were suggesting Patriots should go for Overtime, but Brady had other plans. I really think he deserved the MVP, he carried the game in the end. The field goal in the last second was a big deal, I guess.. although all the field goals we see in these matches, I have hardly seen any one, not going through.

All in all, a good match. Three cheers for the Patriots.
