Bad Bunny cuts a fine figure in a white getup, a subversion of the American football outfit holding the football with a tropical jungle surrounding.
The dancers take over in a steamy halftime show and it’s only just starting!
Here’s the halftime show!
Strap in as Bad Bunny’s time approaches…
Lowest scoring first half since 2018
That’s the big stat so far: Lowest scoring first half since 2018.
We hope viewers, particularly around Europe where it’s after midnight, aren’t falling asleep.
Thankfully, the halftime show is on soon!
A great interception but three points to Seattle still
As it looked like the ball was heading to Seattle in the touchdown, New England jumped in front and stopped it dead in the water.
Inevitably the Seahawks scored another three points for their efforts with 10 seconds left.
9-0.
Approaching the end of 2nd quarter
With less than one minute left of 2nd quarter, we may still be at 6-0 by the end of play which would mean three points scored in each quarter by Seattle.
However, the positive? The halftime show is just around the corner…
Jessica Alba, Billie Joe Armstrong and Tobey Maguire.
Another strange who’s who of celebs gracing the Super Bowl crowd but they all seem preoccupied with their phones or partners.
Albeit it’s a break between action but this could be remembered as one of the slower Super Bowls…or maybe it’ll end in an explosive final quarter as tends to happen.
It’s anyone’s guess.
A game of defence (so far)
To be fair to both teams, their defences are incredibly strong.
The downside? This means not as much dramatic action and a very lethargic score early doors.
You can see both offensive teams struggling to find gaps but it just takes a slip up to change that score dramatically for either side.

6-0 to Seattle!
With the New England Patriots refusing to budge in the red zone, Seattle use their initiative and kick an incredible field goal thanks to the talent of Jason Mayers.
While Seattle have doubled their lead, this looks likes it’ll be a low scoring game all in all unless either team can capitalise on a burst of momentum.
Who’s your money on?
An alternative halftime show (that nobody asked for)
Some not content with the announcement of Bad Bunny’s halftime performance have taken it upon themselves to organise an ‘alternative halftime show’ led by faded country singer Kid Rock.
Not sold? Me neither.
Well, if you want to tune into this far-right protest – who were outraged at the idea of a non-English halftime show – on your own head be it but here’s how you can do so here.
Let me know if it’s any good.
A close call for New England
Seattle make a hell of a lot of progress!
New England nearly allow the ball to be caught near touchdown in a slip but thankfully no game.
But two successive charges up the field see Seattle get ever closer to scoring some more points on the scoreboard.
Will the East Coast hold off the West Coast or is this fighting the inevitable?
Start of second quarter
As one quarter ends, another begins.
A low scoring game so far as both teams get a sense of the other but the quarterbacks have certainly see plenty of action.
Will this continue?
If you had to describe the action so far in a single picture:

Seattle defence works overtime!
Are New England lacking in their offence or are Seattle playing a great defensive game?
More the latter but New England are struggling to find points as Seattle still lead with three.
3-0.
Some celebs watching on…
Tennis player Roger Federer, Apple CEO Tim Cook and rapper Jay-Z.
It’s a random assortment of celebs – some appearing in the news for the wrong reasons recently – but reflects how diverse the crowd watching at home is too.
How do I watch the halftime show?
This halftime show may be one of the most talked about of recent years
A tall order consider Kendrick played last year in an incredible but contentious set where he performed his iconic diss track Not Like Us about Drake.
But how do you watch all the action as Bad Bunny takes the stage?
As soon as I type that it’s 0-0, Seattle go on and add three to the scoreboard!
A lovely early edge for the Seahawks as they dominate early doors.
3-0.
Steady progress for Seattle
After New England’s kickoff we’ve watched Seattle make steady progress up the field.
Nothing for either teams yet but keep posted.
Kickoff!
The moment you’ve been waiting for!
New England kickoff and seem happy with it.
New England win the coin toss!
And there we go: the Patriots win the coin toss!
This means that New England will kickoff and take the ball after halftime, a massive advantage psychologically too before any action has even been played.
Super Bowl Hall of Famers watch on
Manning, Montana, you know a few of these names.
They watch on from the sidelines as they prepare for the start.
With the rise of NFL in other countries, such as the UK, there’s a lot of understanding to do.
NFL UK have put together a very handy guide to understand all the rules.
You’re welcome.
Who is Vince Lombardi?

You’ll know his name from the trophy named after him, but who is Vince Lombardi?
Well, back in the 1960s as head coach, he led the Green Bay Packers to three straight and five total NFL Championships.
Not only is he considered the greatest America Football coach all of all time, but he is often thought as one of the greatest sport coaches ever.
So, now you know.
Less than an hour until kick off!

Well, the hour is nearly here.
In 40 minutes, we’ll be kicking off the action in California.
Anticipation for one of – if not – the biggest sporting event of the year is high and we’re hoping for a riveting game.
Still not sure how to watch the action where you are? Check out this handy guide here.

So, we’ve talked a lot about the sporting action but – he says in a barely audible whisper – maybe you don’t like American Football?
A lot of Americans and viewers from around the world tune in for much more than this. It’s as much about the atmosphere as it is the two teams battling out on the field.
And that includes the halftime show which this year will be Bad Bunny’s terrain. The Puerto Rican rapper – who scooped up some Grammys less than a week ago – is a phenomenally popular artist who will be sprinkling his own flavour over proceedings.
He’ll be singing and rapping fully in Spanish, the first non-English performance in Super Bowl history. It’s sure to be explosive, keep tuned for that.
Battle of the Titans

Every team loves a narrative and these two giants are no different.
New England Patriots were dominating when it came to Super Bowl appearances for much of the 2000s and 2010s in the heady days of Tom Brady…but recently not so much.
That is until Drake Maye who looks set to fill the big shoes of Brady and bring New England to a possible win today. Will he deliver?
And then we have Seattle Seahawks with Sam Darnold. Having only one victory and three appearances at Super Bowl, Seattle are putting all their chips with Darnold who has had a journey from player of ridicule to the Comeback King.
But which team and player will see them to victory?
Who’s playing and who’s the favourite?

It’s the New England Patriots vs the Seattle Seahawks.
We know you already know that, you wouldn’t be reading this if you did.
But who’s looking like the favourite? Early conventional wisdom has Seattle as the bookie’s favourite but New England have lifted more Super Bowl trophies.
Will the underdogs make it a record-breaking seventh win or will Seattle provide a win for the West Coast with the home crowd more than likely on their side?
Only time will tell…

Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara to be precise, just across the bay from San Francisco. This venue has served as the home of the San Francisco 49ers for over 10 years.
But how come they’re hosting if the 49ers didn’t make it to the Super Bowl?
Well, it’s a part of a bidding process where cities bid to host the biggest sporting event of the year. It’s a coincidence when cities host and have a team in the Super Bowl.
