NFL showcase goes live on Fox Sports

FOX International Channels (FIC) Asia, News Corporation’s international multimedia business and Asia’s leading pay-TV network, announced yesterday that Fox Sports will be showcasing the live broadcast of the 2013 National Football League (NFL) Super Bowl XLVII featuring the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens tomorrow at 7:30 a.m.

The Super Bowl XLVII will be held in New Orleans and features the newly crowned AFC Champions Baltimore Ravens, who survived a tough playoff season against formidable conference rivals, such as Peyton Manning’s tough Denver Broncos and ending Tom Brady’s quest for his fourth Super Bowl by beating the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game.

The NFC Champions San Francisco 49ers also had an inspiring run to this year’s Super Bowl by beating 2010 Champions Green Bay Packers in the Divisional Playoffs followed by the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC Championship Game.

History appears to be in their favor as the San Francisco 49ers are the only team never to have lost in the Super Bowl, owning a 5-0 record.

The 2013 Super Bowl also features several intriguing tales that go beyond the tape, such as two brothers who will coach opposing teams on America’s biggest sports stage in Jim and John Harbaugh.

The Harbaugh brothers will become the first siblings in history to coach against each other at the Super Bowl when Jim’s San Francisco 49ers goes up against John’s Baltimore Ravens.
