1990 NFC Championship Game NY Giants vs San Francisco 49ers

January 20th, 1991, Candelstick Park, San Francisco, California

The 13-3 New York "Football" Giants vs The 14-2 San Francisco 49ers

The Giants were seeking their first trip to the Super Bowl since they won Super Bowl XXI, while the 49ers were looking to join the Miami Dolphins as the only other team to advance to three consecutive Super Bowls. Exactly six years after winning his second ring in four years, 49ers quarterback Joe Montana was aiming to play for (and, the 49ers hoped, to win) his fifth ring in ten years.
