Football Team – Giants (20-23): New York’s defense snatches victory | Touchdown Actu (NFL Actu)

Washington Football Team (2-6) – New York Giants (2-7) : 20-23

Long in the lead, the Giants thought they were surprised on the line by letting the premises gradually return to the score. Unable to advance in attack in the second half, the New Yorkers can thank their defense.

With two interceptions in the last 2 minutes of the game including the last decisive from Logan Ryan, the visitors’ defense prevented the team from sinking into a defeat that would have seemed inadmissible.

New York provides the basics

We initially thought to attend a match worthy of the greatest clashes of the NFC East after a 4th failed attempt by New York and a fumble and his improbable attempt at recovery, “Benny hillesque. “

And finally, after this wry start, the Giants defensively confirmed the great outings of recent weeks. A covered punt and two losses of balls caused allowed the defense of the visitors to maintain their opponents at 3 points and 132 small yards at half-time. An attack from Washington which in addition was not helped by the exit on injury of Kyle Allen.

Obviously in such circumstances, the attack on New York must ensure. This is partly what she does by scoring several times after the turnovers caused. First on a field goal (0-3) then on a touchdown run (0-10) by Wayne Gallman (14 races, 68 yards, 1TD).

The Giants’ attack drives the point home in the 2nd quarter with a new field goal (3-13) then their best offensive of the match with a series of 10 games and 75 yards that Evan Engram (5rec, 48 yards, 1TD) concluded in the end zone (3-20). A half concluded defensively with Blake Martinez who intercepts Alex Smith.

Washington trop court

In the second half, the capital team looks up offensively. The playoffs advance and Terry McLaurin hurts the opposing defense a lot. From the first, Washington marks its first touchdown (10-20) of the match with a winning run from Antonio Gibson.

The locals even get closer to the score when, on the next two drives, they add a field goal (13-23) and especially Terry McLaurin (7rec, 115 yards, 1TD) makes all his talent speak for transforming a mid-reception. 68 yard touchdown ground (20-23).

New York is stunned and his attack could only respond with a field goal, accumulating errors: umpteenth drop from Evan Engram, loss of balls from Daniel Jones ((23/34, 212 yards, 1TD)) … But as often this season, it is the defense that saves its partners by stopping the Washington Football Team attack twice in the last two minutes.

With this victory, New York is getting closer to the head of its division, strange as it may seem. And who knows with the best defense in the division?
