The Kansas City Chiefs are crowned Super Bowl LVIII champions. In an exciting match at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, they won their fourth title by beating the San Francisco 49ers with a score of 25-22.
The Kansas City Chiefs made history this Sunday by winning the Super Bowl trophy for the second consecutive year. The last time a two-time championship was seen in the sporting event was in 2003 and 2004 with the triumph of the New England Patriots.
Although, in the regular season, San Francisco surpassed the Chiefs in victories, Kansas City managed to defeat the 49ers for the second time. The first was in 2020, when they achieved a score of 31-20.
The Chiefs finished the first half trailing (10-03) and had a rough start to the second half after quarterback Patrick Mahomes was intercepted by 49ers safety Ji'Ayir Brown.
However, in the last seconds of regulation time, the Chiefs managed to score a field goal, leaving the game tied at 19-19 and taking the Super Bowl into overtime for the second time in history to break the tie.
