The 2022 to 2023 football season has officially come and gone, and the 57th Super Bowl has come to an end.

The highly-anticipated game resulted in a win for the Kansas City Chiefs, with the Philadelphia Eagles losing 38 to 35. The game was quite momentous for both teams, not only as fans saw the first time in NFL history two Black quarterbacks – Jalen Hurts is the Eagles' QB and Patrick Mahomes the Chiefs' – oppose one another, but also brothers Jason and Travis Kelce compete against each other as well. 

The night also of course saw the even more long-awaited comeback of Rihanna, who stole the show during her halftime performance, even announcing she is pregnant with baby number two.

The Eagles kicked-off the game after a coin toss resulted in their favor, subsequently scoring the first touchdown of the night.

The Chiefs scored their own touchdown shortly after, with both teams scoring one within the first quarter of the game.

By the second quarter, the two teams had left the game at 14-24 with the Eagles in the lead, and though they kept a tight lead after the players returned to the field following the halftime show, the Chiefs advanced to a 35-27 lead during the fourth quarter.

The Eagles later closed the gap by two points with five minutes left of the game, and quickly after their QB put them in a 35-point tie. They were tied until there were eight seconds out from the last quarter, when a 27-yard field goal try from Harrison Butker advanced the Cheifs to 38-35, subsequently leading to the Kansas City team's victory. It's the second Super Bowl win for the team within four years.
