Jaguars snatch dramatic last-second victory over Eagles in London NFL clash

The Jacksonville Jaguars secured a 19-17 win against the Philadelphia Eagles in an NFL London game, thanks to a 57-yard field goal in the final second.

  • Cam Little's 57-yard field goal in the final second sealed a 19-17 victory for the Jaguars.
  • The game saw Eagles linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr and Jaguars defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr ejected for fighting.
  • The Jaguars are now on a three-match winning streak and lead AFC South with a 4-1 record.

The Jacksonville Jaguars clinched a dramatic 19-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in an NFL London game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Cam Little delivered the winning blow with a 57-yard field goal in the final second of the match.

The Eagles had taken the lead with eight seconds remaining after completing a 48-yard field goal. However, Ameer Abdullah's 53-yard return set up Little for his lengthy pressure kick, which he celebrated with his team-mates.

The game began with controversy as Eagles linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr and Jaguars defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr were ejected for fighting on the opening kick-off. A 90-yard touchdown for the Jaguars by Josh Cameron was nullified due to penalties from this incident.

Despite the Eagles missing top running backs Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby, they held a 14-3 lead at half-time. The Jaguars fought back, with Parker Washington scoring a touchdown to give them a 16-14 lead before Little's decisive kick.

The Jaguars are now enjoying a three-match winning streak and sit atop AFC South with a 4-1 record. Conversely, the Eagles are on a three-match losing run and are second in NFC South, with their two wins coming from their opening fixtures.
