The New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks will contest Super Bowl 60 on 8 February.

The Patriots edged out the Broncos in blizzardy conditions, with quarterback Drake Maye rushing for New England's only touchdown of the day in a 10-7 win.

The Seahawks then came out on top of a high-scoring thriller, with quarterback Sam Darnold throwing for three touchowns as they beat the Los Angeles Rams 31-27.

New England have reached the Super Bowl 12 times, the most of any team in the NFL but this will be their first appearance since 2018.

The Seahawks have won it once and this will be their fourth Super Bowl, with their last appearance coming in the 2014 season when they were defeated by... the Patriots.
