49ers vs. Lions: How to watch, stream, and listen to the NFC Championship Game | 49ers Webzone



In an impressive comeback, the San Francisco 49ers secured a spot in Super Bowl LVIII by overcoming a 17-point halftime deficit to defeat the Detroit Lions 34-31 at Levi's Stadium in the NFC championship game. The Lions initially dominated both the ball possession and scoreboard in a surprising first half, showcasing their strength on both sides of the line of scrimmage and amassing 148 rushing yards against the formidable 49ers defensive front, leading 24-7 at halftime. However, a remarkable third-quarter surge by the 49ers, highlighted by extraordinary plays from Brandon Aiyuk and Christian McCaffrey, erased the Lions' lead. The 49ers claimed their first lead in the fourth quarter with a 33-yard field goal. Subsequent critical stops and significant runs by Brock Purdy and McCaffrey set the stage for an Elijah Mitchell touchdown, extending the 49ers' lead to 10 points late in the fourth quarter. Despite a late touchdown drive by the Lions led by Jared Goff, their onside kick failed, securing a three-point victory for the 49ers. The 49ers will now face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl, with the Chiefs having secured their spot by defeating the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC championship game earlier on Sunday.
