Just like that, the Kansas City Chiefs have taken the lead in Super Bowl 54. Patrick Mahomes connected with Damien Williams on a 5-yard scoring pass with 2:44 left, and the Chiefs now lead the San Francisco 49ers 24-20. Mahomes
connected with Sammy Watkins for a 38-yard gain down the right sideline, the biggest blow on the drive. The Chiefs have been masters of comebacks throughout this postseason, erasing double-digit deficits to beat Houston and Tennessee. And now they’re on the cusp of doing it again for a Super Bowl title.

The 49ers cashed in on Patrick Mahomes' interception. Raheem Mostert went in from a yard out, and San Francisco took a 20-10 lead over Kansas City with 2:35 left in the third quarter. The 49ers needed just under three minutes to go 55 yards in six plays, with Jimmy Garoppolo connecting with Kendrick Bourne on a big 11-yard gain while facing 3rd-and-eight to keep things going. That's now 17 unanswered points for the 49ers.
---------------------------------
Jimmy Garoppolo connected with Kyle Juszczyk on a 15-yard touchdown pass with 5:05 left in the first half, and Super Bowl 54 between San Francisco and Kansas City is tied at 10-10. Garoppolo is now 8 for 10 for 69 yards and a score. He had been picked off on San Francisco's preceding drive, which strangely means good things are going to happen: He's now 39 for 42 for 461 yards with three touchdowns and zero interceptions this season in the drive immediately following an interception.
----------------------------------------------
The Chiefs took a risk and wound up with a touchdown. After Damien Williams got four yards on fourth-and-1 from the San Francisco 5, quarterback Patrick Mahomes ran it in for the game’s first TD with 31 seconds left in the opening quarter as Kansas City took a 7-3 lead over the 49ers in the Super Bowl.
