NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Ravens used a last-gasp defensive stand to hold off the San Francisco 49ers 34-31 and capture their second Super Bowl title in 12 years.

Game MVP Joe Flacco threw for three touchdowns while helping Baltimore build a 21-6 halftime advantage.

Then, not long after Jacoby Jones opened the second half with a 108-yard kickoff return that increased the Ravens’ lead to 28-6, a power outage held up play for 34 minutes.

The Niners regrouped, and Colin Kaepernick directed four second-half scoring drives.

The Niners’ final touchdown cut the deficit to 31-29. They missed a two-point conversion try before Baltimore added a late field goal and then took a safety in the final seconds.

It is San Francisco’s first loss in six Super Bowl appearances.

It was Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis’ final game after a 17-year pro career.
