Cam Little kicked a 57-yard field goal in the final second to seal a 19-17 victory for the Jacksonville Jaguars against the Philadelphia Eagles in an exhilarating NFL London game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.<\/b><\/p>\n
The Jaguars had conceded the lead with eight seconds remaining after the Eagles completed their own 48-yard field goal, but Ameer Abdullah made 53 yards on the return before being tackled with a second on the clock.<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old Little completed the lengthy pressure kick and tore off his helmet, racing to the end of the pitch to celebrate in front of the fans, arms outstretched like England midfielder Jude Bellingham, before being mobbed by his team-mates.<\/p>\n
The game featured drama in its opening moments as Eagles linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr and Jaguars defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr were ejected for fighting on the opening kick-off.<\/p>\n
Josh Cameron had scored a 90-yard touchdown for the Jaguars from the kick-off, but the score was nullified for the penalties resulting from Trotter seemingly shoving his opponent to the ground before appearing to receive a kick in return.<\/p>\n
The Eagles, who were missing their top two running backs in Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby, were the first to concede when Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington reached the endzone in the first quarter.<\/p>\n
In perhaps a nod to Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney, Washington did a boxing knockout celebration.<\/p>\n
However, the Eagles went into half-time with a 14-3 lead following touchdowns from third-choice running back Will Shipley and wide receiver Darius Cooper.<\/p>\n
Little’s 34-yard field goal cut the deficit in the third quarter, although he missed the extra-point kick when Parker Washington’s 27-yard touchdown gave the Jaguars a 16-14 lead with three minutes and 20 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n
This time, Washington copied Chelsea forward Cole Palmer’s cold celebration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
