Victory in the top game
Eagles madness: Two touchdowns in 20 seconds!
The Philadelphia Eagles remain on course for success in the National Football League (NFL). Thanks to a strong final quarter, quarterback Jalen Hurts' team won the top game of the NFC East against the Washington Commanders 26:18 and recorded its sixth successive victory. This means that the Eagles currently have the third-longest winning run in the US football league.
Saquon Barkley emerged as the match winner. The running back scored two touchdowns within 20 seconds in the final period. After Barkley ran 23 yards into the opposing end zone with five minutes to go, the ball carrier then scored a 39-yard touchdown to take a decisive 26:10 lead. Prior to that, the Eagles defense had intercepted Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels as he attempted to pass the ball.
Daniels' counterpart Jalen Hurts had a better game, with the Eagles quarterback running into the end zone himself midway through the fourth quarter for a 12-10 lead. Hurts had to be replaced briefly in the second period after he went down and was checked for signs of a concussion.
The Eagles won their eighth of ten games this season to maintain the top spot in the NFC East division ahead of the Commanders, who have won seven of their eleven games.
