Sun Sep 15 16:00:35 UTC 2024: ## 49ers Aim to Break 30-Year Drought in Minnesota
**MINNEAPOLIS, MN** – The San Francisco 49ers face a surprising challenge this Sunday as they head to Minnesota to take on the Vikings. Despite the two teams not being known for a heated rivalry, the 49ers are seeking their first victory in Minneapolis since December 1992.
The last time San Francisco triumphed over the Vikings on the road was in Week 15 of the 1992 season, a 20-17 win with Steve Young at the helm. Since then, the 49ers have suffered seven consecutive losses in Minnesota, including a 22-17 defeat in the 2023 season.
This extended drought adds a layer of intrigue to the upcoming matchup. Only two current 49ers players, veteran offensive lineman Trent Williams and fullback Kyle Juszczyk, were even born when the last win in Minnesota occurred.
With such a long time elapsed since their last victory in the Twin Cities, the 49ers will be extra motivated to end their streak and finally secure a win in U.S. Bank Stadium. The team will be looking to capitalize on their recent momentum, hoping to break this surprising trend against a team they might not have considered a historical rival.
