On his second offensive attempt, 7-7, he attempted a 41-yard field goal, but it went off the left side. First missed field goal of the season.

The first 46-yard field goal attempt went nowhere, but the opposing defense’s offside foul pushed him forward 5 yards and he kicked him again, but he got away this time too.

Then, with 6:17 left in the second quarter, the team hit a 54-yard field goal to tie the score at 17-17.

He allowed a touchdown on his next defense, ending the first half at 17:24.

He closed the gap by hitting a 48-yard field goal on the first drive of the second half, and a touchdown on the next drive made it 27-27.

However, a 54-yard field goal attempt with 6:42 left in the fourth quarter with a deficit of 27:30 was blocked by the opposing defense and failed.

Since then the game has evolved in an unknown direction. Tampa Bay missed the opportunity to attack with a perm, and Atlanta also allowed an interception.

Atlanta’s defense then blocked the opponent’s attack attempt, allowing them to restore their right to attack with 1:20 left in the fourth quarter.

Atlanta gave Koo Young-hoe another field goal with one second left. Koo Young-hoe attempted and made a 52-yard field goal at the end of the fourth quarter, taking the game to a long period.

Atlanta, which had a chance to attack first in overtime, scored a game-ending touchdown. Atlanta won 36-30.
