The San Francisco 49ers are clinging to a 13-10 lead over the Kansas City Chiefs in the third quarter of Super Bowl LIV. And after scoring a go-ahead field goal on their first possession of the second half, the Niners defense managed to respond with a big play of its own.

Facing 3rd-and-12 on the Chiefs 39-yard line, following EDGE Nick Bosa recording a sack and forced fumble, quarterback Patrick Mahomes attempted a pass over the middle intended for wide receiver Tyreek Hill. But linebacker Fred Warner got in the way and intercepted the pass, ending what could have been a go-ahead Chiefs drive:



Mahomes' turnover now equals 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo's first-half interception, which led to three points for Kansas City.

Let's see how San Francisco handles its own generated turnover with 5:23 left in the third quarter.
