Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday evening defeated Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 to deny them an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl win.
The Chiefs were playing in their fifth Super Bowl in six years.
Much of the pre-game hype focused on a potential three-peat.
But the Eagles utterly dominated in New Orleans, in particular their defence.
They avenge their Super Bowl defeat by the Chiefs two years ago.
Kansas City's star quarterback Patrick Mahomes was sacked six times.
Mahomes threw two interceptions as the Chiefs' bid for NFL immortality was ruthlessly quashed.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts stepped up for Eagles to silence those who continue to question his passing game, throwing a superb 46-yard touchdown pass to seal a humbling defeat for the Chiefs.
The victory was the Eagles' second Super Bowl win having claimed their first in 2018.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump released a message before the Super Bowl LIX.
He said he was looking forward to joining fans in New Orleans for the Super Bowl LIX to cheer on the two great teams.
According to Trump, football is America's most popular sport for good reason and it fosters a sense of national unity.
