SUPER BOWL XLIII


SUPER BOWL
PITTSBURGH 27
ARIZONA 23

Yesterdays Super Bowl extravaganza was a record-setting sixth Super Bowl win for the Steelers, 27-23 over the Arizona Cardinals. The 6-yard catch from deep in the right corner of the end zone during the last 35 seconds of the game was all thanks to Santonio Holmes (Steelers, Wide Receiver).

The Steelers (15-4), led 20-7 during the fourth quarter, which took a drastic change when Kurt Warner (Cardinals, Quarterback) fought to reach the 23-20 game score with 2:37 remaining on the clock.

Warner passed to Fitzgerald (Cardinals, Wide Receiver) for a 64-yard touchdown with the remaining 2:37. Fitzgerald ran down the middle of the field while passing all of the Steelers. Roethlisberger (Steelers, Quarterback) then managed to mislead a 78-yard drive to win the game.
