The Kansas City Chiefs win the 54th Superbowl by beating the San Francisco 49ers 31 to 20 . A game fought with the Chiefs initially at a disadvantage before Patrick Mahones took the team by the hand and led to victory, the first in 50 years. Congratulates the champions Donald Trump. "We are proud of you," tweets the American president a few moments after the end of the match. "Congratulations to the Chiefs for the great game and the fantastic comeback, under great pressure," adds the tycoon, however, slipping into a gaffe, citing the state of Kansas while Kansas City is in the state of Missouri.
The presidential tweet was quickly corrected. The tycoon was somehow one of the protagonists of the Superbowl with a 60-second election spot on his achievements in criminal justice reform. Michael Bloomberg replied with a one-minute advertisement against firearm violence. In the stands of the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami to follow the sporting event of the year many VIPs: from Beyoncè and Jay Z - immortalized by the cameras while eating the french fries - to Paul McCartney. Before the two teams entered the field, Kobe Bryant was honored with a moment of silence.
Then the voice of Demi Lovato sang the American national anthem, officially opening the party in the stands and on the field. The first part of the match was very hard fought, with the Chiefs in difficulty. In the second part of the match, after a difficult start in which he lost 20 to 10, the Kansas City team found momentum and turned the result upside down to victory: for the Chiefs it is the second at the Superbowl after that of 1970 against the Vikings of the Minnesota. In addition to sport, the Superbowl as always has been marked by the show during the halftime. For the first time the two protagonists were two Hispanic stars, Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, demonstrating the National Football Association's efforts to be more inclusive. Shakira opened the dances on the stage set up in the field: all dressed in red she sang her most popular songs. Then she passed the microphone to Jlo who, wrapped in the Puerto Rico flag, performed for a few moments together with her daughter Emme.
