The Houston Texans produced a defensive masterclass to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 30-6 and book the final spot in the Divisional Round of the NFL play-offs.
The final Wildcard Weekend game on Monday was expected to be a low-scoring affair and so it proved for three quarters, with Houston leading 7-6.

After joining the Steelers on a one-year deal, the NFL’s four-time Most Valuable Player has said this could be his final season.
And Pittsburgh are now out of the play-offs with Houston, the fifth seed in the AFC, securing a trip to the New England Patriots next Sunday.
