This year’s edition of the Super Bowl will be the 56th in the event’s history as American football fans across the world tune in for the sport’s biggest game.

Last year, legendary New England Patriot Tom Brady proved he could win the title at another team as he lifted the trophy with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

It remains to be seen whether or not he will get the opportunity to compete for an eighth Super Bowl crown in 2022.

But what is for sure is that it will be one of the biggest sporting spectacles of the year.
