Super Bowl XLII is certainly up there in sports history. If we’re looking at all sports (particularly USA sports), I’d voted for the Miracle on Ice.

On top of that, Team USA got demolished by the Soviets 10-3 in an exhibition at Madison Square Garden just a few weeks before the 1980 Olympics. The Soviets had won gold in five of the previous six Olympic Games. They were an unbeatable powerhouse. Making 1980 even more impressive is the fact that the Soviets took home gold in the proceeding Olympics in 1984 and 1988. The Soviet Union also won an absurd 22 IIHF World Championships between 1954 and 1990. So, in other words, they went back to owning the world in hockey until the USSR officially collapsed. The Russian Men’s National Team has had success on the world stage, but not nearly to the degree of the old Soviet empire. Their only gold medal up to this point in 2018 came when they competed as “Olympic Athletes from Russia (OAR).”

NFL's all time best script.

Lol imagine thinking this was scripted

The complete awe Eli is in after the final touchdown. He was 100% in the zone.

I remember watching this live in the UK it was like 3am and so worth it!

[@williamclapp3074]

Out of the giant's 4 super bowl wins, this is no doubt the greatest.

Bills in 91 was a great one. It’s close.

The Eagles eventually got their poor man's version of Eli Manning, Nick Foles.

[@monotonesarcasm]

I'm still puzzled as to what Ellis Hobbs was thinking that last play. How are you on 10 yards off Plaxico and still get burnt? The OG burnt toast.

[@finnburke2709]

I remember this game like it was yesterday as a Pats fan. Most devastating sports loss ever! The biggest play no one talks about in my opinion is 8:49 on the 3rd and 7 from the Giants 26 yard line, that sack took them out of field goal range and forced the Patriots to go for it on 4 and 13 from the Giants 32. "There's a lot of people that know what it's like to lose a Super Bowl, there's 53 men and 1 coaching staff that knows what it's like to lose a Super Bowl when you are on the verge of 19-0" -Heath Evans (fullback for the Patriots 2005-2008)

[@nccamsc]

You are saying the Pats kicker can’t make a 50-yard field goal?

[@ReneParada]

That Asante Samuel missed INT is the biggest play no one talks about.

[@MightyDuckofAnaheim200203]

16:07 this is the Legendary unforgettable play we all remember and came for to watch this Super Bowl throwback

[@philly_sports1558]

I was a little kid when this game happened but I remember it vividly. I also remembered my older family members wanting both teams to lose lol

[@jrad410]

Pain as a pats fan. Losses in SB 56 and 52 were expected by me. But I thought that they’d prevail here. Beyond the helmet catch so many plays Pats missed. Not going for the Fg, missed fumble recovery, THREE missed chances at a pick on the final drive and narrow 4th down conversion. But Giants earned it no doubt.

[@TJ89741]

The giants totally outplayed the pats in this game but they had so many missed opportunities

No doubt. He stamped it with all his game winning clutch drives when it counted in the playoffs and SB.

The whole world: Patriots are perfect. 1972 Miami Dolphins after Super Bowl XLII: We are grateful to the New York Giants.

[@rgman2858]

This game for me was the best Giants game ever. I had just moved to New England from PA about an hour south west of NYC and all of my coworkers in Maine were huge Patriots fans. The day before the SB our manager told us we could wear out jerseys to work that day and I was the only person we saw all day with a Giants jersey on. I kept hearing "you honestly don't think they stand a chance do you"? In which I always replied there's always a chance. The morning after the SB my manager walks into our personnel room and I'm not visible to him where I'm standing and he yells out to " I can see you smiling right now" 😀 None of my coworkers really talked to me that day.

[@kaminator515]

Not a fan of either team, however this is beyond a shadow of a doubt the best Super Bowl all time. From start to finish every play had you on the edge of your seat.

[@KevinT7274]

Last few minutes were great, but the rest of the game no. Bills-Giants was a better game.

[@jamesthemaniac3293]

Its wild how sloppy Eli was that whole game! Almost all of his passes were floating and inaccurate.

This was the very first Super Bowl I ever watched in my life. I was 9 years old, kept hearing about this game known as the Super Bowl and decided to watch it. I thought I’d get bored but surprisingly I ended up watching the entire game. And since then, I’ve been hooked into the NFL even more and my love for the game had grown year after year.

[@nathanielcranshaw7839]

As a diehard New England patriots fan this broke my heart real bad and then we Lost to the giants again I was like really upset but this was the worst night of my life but then we beat Seattle Seahawks in the super bowl and won the next 3 or 4 Super Bowls and now I’m grateful go pats💙❤️.

[@Sparky71870]

You didn't win the next 3 or 4 after Seattle. You missed the next SB, then beat the Falcons a year later and lost another SB the following year. You know, there might be a reason why everyone thinks Pats fans are/were arrogant.

[@packersauburneric3625]

What happened to Lawrence Maroney I forgot

[@rojeezee]

It’s amazing that I know how this all ends and I’m still enraged with missed tackles or dumb penalties and I still hold my breath when they got Manning dead to rights before he chucks it up for an impossible completion.

God I hated the Patriots of this era but I felt so bad for Randy. An indisputable great losing what he probably knew was his last shot at the Super Bowl.

Those last 2 Patriots plays. Couldn’t believe how far Brady threw that ball even though both were incomplete.

I'm glad Joe Buck called this game, I'd never find excitement without his commentary.

Tuck, omenyiora, straham, Paul-Pierce was awesome in that two Victories above Patriots in super bowl.

[@georgegoddiess9173]

Well timed upload, just read Tom coughlins book on the game and it's great to rewatch the plays after reading coughlin break them down I remember the tyree catch moment, I was in high school and the parents watched upstairs while we watched in the basement. Our TV had a delay so we heard a lot of yelling upstairs and thought oh shit what happened, then saw that great catch

[@MarsJenkar]

I remember thinking at the time, "If the Giants score on this drive and win the game, that catch is going to become legendary." They did score, they did win, and that catch has indeed become legendary. David Tyree's last two catches of his NFL career couldn't possibly have been more impactful. A touchdown catch near the beginning of the 4th quarter, and a clutch catch to save the game-winning drive. If those are going to be your last catches ever, it's hard to think of a better way to go out.

[@Heie_]

@2:50 why no one talks about this absolute dot Eli threw to toomer on the sideline and great toe tap catch

[@laurinnn]

because it wasn't a dot, it was a Flacco esque arm punt that didn't even have the same velocity as Flacco's

[@antangelone]

I’m so glad I didn’t start watching football until a few years after this game happened, even watching replays hurts, can’t imagine how I would’ve felt watching it live

[@finchborat]

I was a fan of the team but I wasn't emotionally invested in them at the time (didn't really follow the NFL hardly at all at the time) and that makes it a little easier (it was also a huge blessing for me at that time). Idk if it would've been right away, but I probably would've bought a championship shirt later on in 2008 had 19-0 happened. Of course, it would depend on what all was still available by that summer or by Christmas 2008. The '08 season was when I started to pay a little more attention to the NFL and become more of a fan. I got a Moss jersey for Christmas that yr. and that was my first piece of Patriots gear I bought. If I was more of a fan at the time and more open about it during 2007, I would've taken an unimaginable amount of heat for not just being a fan but also over the team falling short of 19-0. I was in high school and I was teased and picked on A LOT during my senior year over them (2009 season btw). My hometown is a near 50/50 split between Cowboy fans and Saints fans.

[@stephennixon9609]

As a Yankee fan I had to live with the heartbreak of losing a 3-0 series lead to the Red Sox in 2004 as they broke the curse of the Bambino and became World Champions. This game was revenge for that. 18-1 forever.
