NFL hits back at reports it tried to stop Eminem taking knee during Super Bowl half-time show

The NFL has hit back at reports that rapper Eminem was told not to kneel during his performance at the Super Bowl half-time show.

In a stunning finale, it was the Los Angeles Rams who beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 at the SoFi Stadium, as wide receiver Cooper Kupp grabbed the decisive touchdown with just 85 seconds left on the clock.

As always though, much of the post-match reaction centred around the half-time bonanza, which was headlined by Dr Dre, with performances from Californian stars Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar as well as Mary J Blige, Eminem and 50 Cent.
