Calgary wins sixth Grey Cup

MONTREAL – Sandro DeAngelis led Calgary to its sixth Grey Cup championship Sunday night, kicking five field goals in the Stampeders’ 22-14 victory over the Montreal Alouettes in the Canadian Football League title game.

DeAngelis gave Calgary a 16-14 lead with a 21-yarder on the last play of the third quarter. He connected from 30 yards early in the fourth and completed the scoring with a 50-yarder with 4:12 left.

“This is one of the greatest days of my life,” DeAngelis said. “We are immortal. … I’m very proud to be a member of this Calgary Stampeders organization. This has been a dream for me since I was a little kid.”

Game MVP Henry Burris threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Brett Ralph late in the first half to cut Montreal’s lead to 13-10. Burris completed his first 11 passes and finished 28 of 37 for 328 yards. He also ran for 79 yards.

Avon Cobourne had a 16-yard scoring run for Montreal, and Damon Duval made two field goals and a single.

A crowd of 66,308 attended the game at Olympic Stadium. The Stampeders also won their fifth title at Olympic Stadium, beating Winnipeg in 2001.

Montreal lost for the fifth time in six Grey Cup appearances since 2000.

“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and we just let it slip through our hands,” Montreal quarterback Anthony Calvillo said.
