It took one play for the Baltimore Ravens to get kicker Tyler Loop into field goal position and seal a 34-31 victory over the Dallas Cowboys with one second remaining in regulation.
The duel at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, saw the Ravens as 3.5-point favorites over the Cowboys, according to FanDuel Sportsbook , with both teams entering the matchup at 1-1.
Just as it looked like the game was headed for overtime, tied at 31 with seven seconds remaining, Lamar Jackson connected with Zay Flowers for 27 yards to set up Loop for a 56-yard dagger and seal the win in Brazil.
Dallas found the end zone first with 4:32 remaining in the opening quarter on a Javonte Williams rushing touchdown.
Baltimore's Derrick Henry responded on the next drive with a direct snap touchdown, but Dallas entered the second quarter with a 10-7 advantage with the addition of a successful field goal.
The Ravens began their push for the lead in the second quarter behind Henry's second touchdown of the day, a defensive fourth-down stop and a field goal, to enter halftime with a 17-13 lead.
Dallas was fortunate Baltimore did not run away with the game in the third quarter, committing a fumble on its opening drive and suffering a blocked field goal attempt.
The Cowboys held the Ravens to a touchdown while notching one of their own on a Jake Ferguson reception to trail by just three heading into the final quarter.
Dallas' defense came up big with a fourth-down stop to open the fourth quarter, followed by a 96-yard drive that ended with a touchdown from KaVontae Turpin to give the Cowboys a four-point lead.
Jackson and the Ravens did what they do best, answering with a Matthew Hibner touchdown to retake the lead by three with 1:30 remaining and put the Cowboys' backs against the wall.
The Cowboys stormed down the field and nailed what seemed to be the field goal to force overtime before Baltimore's miraculous one-play drive set up the game-winning kick.
