Tied at 19 at the end of regulation, the game intensified in overtime when the Niners briefly took the lead with a field goal. However, Kansas City’s quarterback Patrick Mahomes led a game-winning drive, connecting with receiver Mecole Hardman for a one-yard touchdown pass with just 13 seconds remaining.
This secured the Chiefs’ third Super Bowl win in five seasons, establishing them as a football dynasty.
