49ers hanged for Wild-card win over Cowboys – Orange County Register

ARLINGTON, Texas – Multicopter Deebo Samuel ran 26 yards to beat the match after being intercepted by Dak Prescott, and the San Francisco 49ers held on to a 23-17 Wild-card win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

The Cowboys had a last chance with 32 seconds left and in San Francisco 41 with 14 seconds left when Prescott broke through the middle with the intention of sliding and hitting the ball to play the final game.

But Dallas has been unsuccessful since the 24th until the clock strikes 0:00. After a short while, referee Alex Kemp declared the match over.

The 49ers overcame Jimmy Garoppolo’s interception to take a 13 lead in the fourth round. Prescott made a touch to get the point inside the box, and had a chance to give Dallas the lead. But the 49ers had to stop in midfield when Prescott’s desperate fourth pass fell out of reach for Cedrick Wilson.

After a 14th penalty from the NFL’s most penalized team in the regular season helped San Francisco run most of the time – and frantic final seconds as Dallas tried to win – the 49ers (11-7) ) won their first playoff win at the Cowboys in a post-season competition.

Now they come to Green Bay for a squad game, looking for another trip to the NFC championship game.

The wait for Dallas (12-6) to get that far in the knockout stages will last at least 27 years after another boom in the first game of the season for Prescott, the second of three trips. for the star midfielder. This is his first playoff since signing a $40 million-a-year contract during the off-season.

The 49ers took control in the fourth round, but didn’t rely on the running game they thought could carry them to victory when Garoppolo put on an Anthony Brown intercept, setting up Prescott for a seven-meter goal.
