U.S. FOOTBALL

Super Bowl LII

By Chris Dinsdale

February 4, 2018 - The New England Patriots take on the Philadelphia Eagles in the 52nd edition of the Super Bowl, at the U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis. The Patriots, who defeated Tennessee and Jacksonville in the playoffs, are aiming to win successive titles after defeating the Atlanta Falcons in 2017, while the Eagles, who eliminated Atlanta and Minnesota, are seeking their first title.

The Super Bowl is the annual championship of the National Football League (NFL), the highest level of professional American football in the United States.

The final, played between the winners of the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC), always attracts massive advertising revenues and vast audiences (the 2017 Super Bowl game saw 172,000,000 TV viewers in the U.S., more than 50 percent of the total population).
