The San Francisco 49ers won their first NFL playoff game in six seasons, using Tevin Coleman’s two short touchdowns and a strong defense to stop the Minnesota Vikings 27-10 in divisional play on Saturday. The 49ers will meet the winner of Sunday’s Green Bay Packers-Seattle Seahawks game in San Francisco for the National Football Conference title on Jan. 19. The top-seeded 49ers never trailed, their aggressive defense holding the Vikings to 21 yards rushing and 147 total yards. “It’s an amazing feeling.”The proud San Francisco franchise had not been in the playoffs since the 2013 season. Robbie Gould’s second field goal for San Francisco, which covered 21 yards, ended the scoring at 27-10.
