The underdogs win Super Bowl. The New York Giants were a team many had discounted time and time again this season, go home as victors.
The Giants defeated an undefeated team - the New England Patriots. The Patriots had a 19 game winning streak, unfortunately they fumbled in the game that mattered the most.
Eli Manning was named the Super Bowl MVP.
A victory parade is planned to be held on Tuesday to honour the Giants win. Hundreds of thousands of supporters are expected to attend the event. The parage will begin at Battery Park at 11:00am and proceed northbound in the Financial District - along the “Canyon of Heroes” route - to Chambers Street.
Giants players, team officials and city notables will ride in the parade, culminating at a victory rally at City Hall around 1:00pm.
