See how Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes reacted when KC Current star Temwa Chawinga scored a hat trick on Mother's Day.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes knows greatness when he sees it, and seemed particularly impressed by a performance he saw while attending a NWSL game with his family on Mother's Day. In front of a packed crowd at CPKC Stadium, KC Current star Temwa Chawinga managed to score a hat trick that helped her team earn a 3-0 win over the Chicago Stars. After Chawinga put the ball in the net for a third time, Mahomes removed his cap and saluted the outstanding forward with the rest of Kansas City's fans.

Take a look at this video of Mahomes recognizing Chawinga's accomplishment, which was posted to Twitter by Matt Foster of KSHB 41: One MVP recognizes another MVP. Patrick Mahomes with a tip of the cap to Temwa Chawinga following her hat trick. #Chiefs šŸ¤ #KCBaby pic.
