Introduction
In American football, the score of the game is a record of the points scored by each team during the game. The score is used to determine who wins the game. American football games are usually 60 minutes long, divided into four 15 minute quarters. The home team scores first, and the away team tries to score more points than the home team. If the away team scores more points, they win the game. If the home team scores more points, they win the game.
The score is generally written as two numbers, separated by a dash. The first number is the number of points scored by the away team, and the second number is the number of points scored by the home team. For example, if the away team scored 10 points and the home team scored 7 points, then the score would be written as 10-7.
In American football, there are several ways that a team can score points. The most common way to score is by touchdown. A touchdown is worth 6 points, and it occurs when a player on either team catches a pass in the end zone or runs with the ball into the end zone. A touchdown can also be worth 2 or 3 points if it is followed by a successful field goal attempt or a successful extra point attempt (see below).
A field goal is worth 3 points and it occurs when a player on either team kicks the ball through their opponent’s goal posts from anywhere on the field (including behind their own end zone).
An extra point is worth 1 point and it occurs after a touchdown has been scored. The scoring team has an opportunity to kick the ball through their opponent’s goal posts (worth 1 point) or they can choose to run or pass into their opponent’s end zone (worth 2 points).

The Highlights
The New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams provided plenty of offensive fireworks in Super Bowl LIII on Sunday night, with the Patriots coming out on top, 13-3.
The game was a rematch of sorts from Super Bowl XXXVI, when the Patriots, led by a young Tom Brady, upset the Rams, then based in St. Louis, by a score of 20-17.
On Sunday night, both teams’ defenses dominated for most of the game. The Rams finally got on the board with a field goal late in the third quarter to cut the Patriots’ lead to 10-3.
The Patriots then put together a drive that resulted in a field goal to make it 13-3. The Rams had one final chance to tie it up late in the fourth quarter, but their drive stalled inside the Patriots’ 10-yard line as time ran out.
