New England Patriots v New York Giants - Live
Super Bowl: Can the Patriots make history or will the Giants produce a huge shock. Follow the action live from 10.45pm
Preamble: Good evening folks and welcome to play-by-play coverage of one of the year's great sporting events - the Super Bowl.
And this year has an extra edge - we could very well see history in the making. The Patriots are undefeated and a victory tonight would make them only the second team in NFL history to record a perfect season. The 1972 Miami Dolphins managed it, but they played fewer games, so if New England lift the trophy they'd have a very decent case for claiming to be the best NFL team ever. Bar none.
Bill Belichick's side are in their fourth Super Bowl in seven years, and they won the previous three. The last time the Giants reached this stage was way back in 2001, when they got hammered 34-7 by Baltimore in what was far from a classic. Let's hope for a better showing from the underdogs this time around.
