Their rivals, the 49ers, entered the game with one more championship trophy in their cabinet and boasted a longer championship pedigree, having reached the Super Bowl eight times in total. The two teams had previously met in the 2020 final, a matchup in which Kansas City again claimed the championship, further adding to the narrative of a recurring head-to-head rivalry on football’s biggest stage.

Another notable moment in the broader context of the teams’ exploits came from the Monaco match, where Alexander Golovin celebrated the winning goal in a notable performance that resonated beyond the immediate game.
