Moro Ojomo, the Lagos-born American Football defensive tackle had an exceptional game in defense as the Philadephia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs to win Super Bowl LIX.
The Philadelphia Eagles outclassed and embarrassed the Kansas City Chiefs with a 40-22 landslide victory on Sunday night at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.
President Donald Trump among other top personalities witnessed how the Philadephia Eagles stopped the Kansas City Chiefs from creating history.
The defending champions were on course to become the first team to win the Super Bowl three times in a row with superstar quarter-back Patrick Mahomes leading the charge.
Kansas City Chiefs were playing in their fifth final in six years and are defending champions so they dominated the talks about the face-off against the Eagles.
However, the Eagles, who had revenge written on their faces after losing the 2023 Super Bowl to the same opponent utterly dominated the game from start to finish.
Patrick Mahomes had a forgettable outing as he was sacked three times and threw three interceptions.
The Kansas City Chiefs kept Eagles’ star running back Saquon Barkley relatively quiet.
However, they had no response for quarterback Jalen Hurts who threw a fantastic 46-yard touchdown pass to seal the win for the new champions.
Jalen Hurts silenced critics who have constantly criticized his passing game as he put up a fantastic performance to claim the Super Bowl LIX MVP.
Also, the quarterback had an impressive outing in Philadephia Eagles’ painful 38-35 loss to the Chiefs two years ago.
Hurts says the loss against the Chiefs two years ago motivated him to the outstanding performance and the eventual victory.
“I’ve been able to use every experience and learn from it, the good and the bad, using it as fuel,” he said.
“There’s always going to be doubts and questioning, but this is the purpose and my calling in life.
“Things come right on time and you know, the last Super Bowl wasn’t our time yet. Sometimes we have to accept that you have to wait your turn.
“I couldn’t do any of this without the guys around me,” Hurts added. “Defence wins championships. We saw the difference they made in the game today.
“Winning a national championship is just an unprecedented feeling. That kid in me always kept working at this, and I stayed true to his vision.”
Donald Trump became the first American sitting President to attend the biggest game in the country’s sports history.
