The Kansas City Chiefs, led by George Karlaftis, won their 4th Super Bowl in history in an incredible final against the San Francisco 49ers early Monday morning in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The 58th NFL final was exciting until the end. Although San Francisco led for most of the game, going into halftime with a 10-3 lead, the title slipped away from them in the end.
Kansas City Chiefs’ quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, managed to tie the game at 19-19 just two minutes before the end of regular time, sending the game into overtime for only the second time in Super Bowl history.
Once again, Patrick Mahomes assisted Mecole Hardman, who scored a walk-off touchdown, making it 25-22 and securing the Super Bowl LVIII for the Chiefs. Taylor Swift danced with joy in the stands of Allegiant Stadium, watching her own, Travis Kelce, become a champion. The singer also gave a passionate kiss to her partner in the stadium.
