An audience of 113 million people tuned in to Fox Corp.’s Super Bowl broadcast to watch the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 in a nail-biter, a slight increase from last year.

The audience included both broadcast and online viewers, the network said Monday in an email. The Chiefs won with a field goal in the final seconds. Last year’s viewers totaled 112.3 million.
