The Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs, securing a resounding victory with a final score of 40:22, broken down as follows: 7:0, 17:0, 10:6, and 6:16.

Kendrick Lamar’s Performance:

The halftime show was electrified by Kendrick Lamar's performance, introduced by Samuel L. Jackson in an Uncle Sam costume. Amidst a backdrop of American iconography, Lamar delivered a powerhouse set featuring "Humble," "Squabble Up," and "Not Like Us," the latter earning five Grammy awards in 2025. Joining him on stage were SZA and tennis icon Serena Williams, adding to the spectacle.

Lamar's "Not Like Us" has been notable as a diss track aimed at Drake, leading to a lawsuit from Drake alleging defamation. Social media buzzed about Lamar's performance, viewing it as a decisive statement in his feud with Drake. The crowd's chant of "a minor" at the performance's end was a reference to allegations within the song concerning Drake's relationships. Serena Williams' participation was particularly poignant given her past connection with Drake.
