In a historic first-ever NFL matchup in South America, held at Arena Corinthians in São Paulo, the Philadelphia Eagles emerged victorious over the Green Bay Packers with a 34-29 win. The game initially tilted in favor of the Packers as Brayden Narveson drilled two first-quarter field goals following turnovers, including a pivotal interception by Xavier McKinney at the Eagles' 19-yard line and a fumble recovery. Yet, Green Bay could not capitalize in the red zone, a theme that would recur throughout the contest.
The Eagles, led by Jalen Hurts' dynamic playmaking, surged in the second half with critical contributions from Saquon Barkley, who racked up 109 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, and a receiving touchdown. Hurts' 67-yard touchdown pass to A.J. Brown early in the third quarter was a momentum-changer. Despite a determined effort from Green Bay, highlighted by Jayden Reed's 70-yard touchdown grab and 33-yard run, it was Jake Elliott's decisive 21-yard field goal with mere seconds remaining that clinched the Eagles' victory, sending the Brazilian crowd into a frenzy.
