The New England Patriots have defeated the Atlanta Falcons in the 2017 Super Bowl to win the prize for the fifth time.

No strangers to the championship game, they won by 34 - 28 to be crowned champions.

This year's Super Bowl marked the team's ninth appearance in the Super Bowl, the most any team has recorded since its inception back in 1967.

Atlanta Falcons were the underdogs going into the match, having only ever made it to this point once before, failing to win, being defeated by the Denver Broncos back in 1999.

Congratulations the New England Patriots!
