Super Bowl LIX: Live coverage of NFL decider between Kansas City and Philadelphia in New Orleans
Who will be crowned Super Bowl champions?
Follow all the action from US sport’s biggest day as Philadelphia look to stop Kansas City from pulling off a rare title three-peat, with kick-off set for 7.30am (WA time).
PHILLY FIELD GOAL - 27-0
It’s now officially becoming a rout! 27-0 Philadelphia!
Barkley is the recipient of a crisp pass into the red zone from Hurts, and moments later, the Eagles settle for the three points.
Just 5.22 left in Q3 for the Chiefs to try and muster something... anything...
Same same!
It’s not going to be Kansas City’s day, it appears.
Mahomes cops TWO MORE sacks from the red-hot Philly defence, and they again force a punt just three minutes into the half!
It remains 24-0 and the bloodbath continues. FIVE sacks and counting today. Unbelievable.
Second half resumes
We’re just about ready for resumption!
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs simply MUST score on this opening drive. It’s got to start here otherwise it’s game over, you feel...
Hits keep coming
After teasing Not Like Us, Lamar has actually performing the Drake diss track.
““I want to play their favorite song, but you know they love to sue,” he said before launching into the track.
At one point Serena Williams was seen on the stage dancing around.
Lamar ended his high-energy set with his song TV off from his sixth studio album GNX.
SZA makes an appearance!
The popular singer joined Lamar on stage in an eye-catching red leather outfit.
She sung a couple of songs she shares with Lamar including All The Stars.
Drake beef teased
Lamar walked over to a group of his female dancers who wore wearing red wigs and teased a snippet of his hate song Not Like Us.
“You know what song this is,” he said.
NFL fans told to be humble
The 37-year-old has broken out in his hit song Humble.
His background dancers formed an American flag around him.
The song came first place in Triple J’s Hottest 100 of 2017.
Kendrick Lamar takes the stage
The American rapper has kicked off his halftime performance by standing on a black car.
An entourage of dancers wearing coloured track suit sets have emerged from inside the car.
Lamar is decked out in a sports themed bomber jacket, flared blue jeans and thick silver chains.
HALF TIME: Eagles 24, Chiefs 0
Well that’s about as one-sided as even the most optimistic Philadelphia fans could have possibly dreamt.
Kansas City got absolutely nothing they wanted, with Patrick Mahomes throwing two interceptions among just 33 yards. He’s had a mare.
Credit to Philly’s defence, who have dialled it up from the word go, and Jalen Hurts is doing as he pleases for the most part when the Eagles have possession.
Stay tuned for the half-time show, which Kellie Balaam will take you through, before we resume on the other side to see if the Chiefs - who have the ball to start the second half - can find ANY sort of foothold in this game.
TOUCHDOWN!
It’s now 24-0 to the Eagles!
AJ Brown runs in off the Hurts pass, and the bloodbath continues here.
1.35 left in the half.
