The Falcons trailed 28-14, committed a franchise record 19 penalties, and...defeated the Buccaneers 29-28 as time expired. Kevin Knight and Tre'Shon Diaz break down one of the strangest and most unlikely victories in Falcons history, discuss why this result doesn't change anything for Raheem Morris and Co., and enjoy some phenomenal performances from Kyle Pitts, Bijan Robinson, Kirk Cousins, and James Pearce Jr. Fellow Falcoholics, welcome to another episode of The Falcoholic Live!

"Winning is always important. I'm happy because the team played well in terms of play and spirit. We always make these mistakes, conceding avoidable goals to others," he said. " We lack focus and cunning, but the team responded, played a great game, and created goals. The new arrivals did well, three-quarters were the Primavera team. We're on the right path; what matters is growth, and today we saw good individual and team growth. "We only have two seniors, Magrassi and Branca. They're intelligent guys, they know where they are and what their job is, which is to help these guys, the team, and when they come in, they always do, they never fail to do so. " The spirit is right, and that's what these guys need, also because they need a bit of experience. The message Magrassi gave today, beyond the goal, is to come in with the right spirit to lend a hand to the team, as Branca himself did and always does. Because guys don't grow alone, but also through example."

Watkins halved the deficit with just under 10 minutes of the half remaining. From Ian Maatsen's low cross, the England international was brave to throw himself amid several bodies to poke home. Emery was visibly agitated on the touchline throughout. However, he went into half-time the happier of the two managers when, in the eighth minute of stoppage time, Watkins doubled his tally, finishing well after latching onto a long ball over the top.

What a battle from the boys in red. After getting a goal called back 20 seconds into the game that should have been counted, then going down 0-2, they fought back, stuck with their game and in regulation. Between Jakob Chychrun extending his goal streak to five games and Logan Thomson making some amazing saves, it was a win that the scouting department would be proud of.

Palace had started the brighter and controlled large spells of the opening 45, but Strasbourg's persistence and attacking changes after the interval were key in shifting the momentum. Palace opened the scoring on 35 minutes with a well-taken goal from Tyrick Mitchell, who arrived unexpectedly inside the area and steered a left-footed shot across Mike Penders into the far corner. Jean-Philippe Mateta' s through pass split the defence and Mitchell's finish was inch-perfect from a narrow angle.

"It was a really important win. I think we know the attitude of the team. We'd seen it a lot last year. In tough moments, we always rise. You can never count us out, and I think we felt that [on Wednesday]. We were really dominant in our second-half performance. Now, we want to build on that going forward. We can score all we want, but if we're not defensively solid, I don't believe you win championships and you win tournaments."

You didn't need to be a longtime Jets observer to know that when they faced fourth-and-1 from their own 49 with 8:41 left in a game in which they trailed the Bengals by 14, their opportunity to win was downright dim. Even the unemotional number-crunching machines that look into such matters came up with the same conclusion: According to the league's Next Gen Stats, there was a 2.9% chance of them pulling out a victory when that snap occurred.

Ayase Ueda capped a remarkable turnaround for Japan as his 71st-minute header sealed a sensational 3-2 victory over Brazil in an international friendly on Tuesday. Following his late heroics against Paraguay in their last match, Ueda provided the pivotal moment yet again for Japan as they stunned Carlo Ancelotti's side at Ajinomoto Stadium. Japan came close to taking the lead in the 21st minute when Takumi Minamino's cross across goal was somehow glanced wide by Ueda following good work from Ritsu Doan.

All night he had watched Marcos Llorente fly up the wing; for the last half an hour he had watched his son do so too, all clenched jaw and bulging veins, stuck on fast forward, a determination so intense it looked like he might explode. Now it was the Atletico Madrid manager's turn, who had literally been on his knees for much of the night, sprinting up the touchline in his black suit and shiny shoes, screaming and let loose again.

Both the San Francisco 49ers and the Arizona Cardinals came into their Sunday contest at Levi's Stadium undefeated, so we figured we would get one heck of a game here. But, instead, we got three quarters of absolutely awful football from both teams, with the 49ers wearing those mid-1990s throwback uniforms that everyone seemed to hate at the time. The fourth quarter then turned into a rollicking unexpected rollercoaster shootout, with the 49ers winning 16-15 on a last-second field goal.

It was a difficult match. We weren't fully present in the first half and conceded twice, but we knew we had to show our character in the second half,

Trailing 13-10 with just 1:43 to go, Purdy pulled a very wild improvisational rabbit out of his hat on a Third and Goal. It was a do-or-die play, and Purdy did, as he ran back about ten full yards from the line of scrimmage, danced around three defenders, and just plain chucked a wing and a prayer up to the end zone, where the triple-covered third-string tight end Jake Tonges somehow caught the jump ball. This would prove the game winning touchdown.

Their ace got battered around, their young stud left with injury, multiple guys had to move positions twice in the game, and tomorrow's starter ended up pitching the ninth inning as the Sox continue to get more creative in their attempt to keep the bottom half of this pitching staff on the tracks. And despite all of that, this group of contagious competitors once again proved resilient and managed to cook up pair of rousing offensive innings in the 6th and the 8th,

With just 33.1 seconds left in regulation, Robert Lang tied the game, allowing Mathieu Schneider to score the overtime winner, leading Detroit to a crucial victory over San Jose.

Nathan Wiles was just effective enough over his final two innings of work to give the Stripers the chance for a comeback.

Washington Mystics staged a significant comeback against the Chicago Sky, overcoming a 12-point halftime deficit to secure a 79-72 victory fueled by a dominant third quarter.

You can never count us out, said third baseman Casey Schmitt on the Giants' postgame show. Every time we step out there, we're expecting a war.

We like to come off a little bit cold, Golden State coach Natalie Nakase said. I just have to figure out how to get them a little bit more warm in the beginning, but I want them to continue to let it fly.

"It was really cool to go up there with one out and get on and for him to keep it going and drive in the winning run," Matix said.
