Q2, 4:34 remaining


Chiefs 10, Vikings 7



Butker kicks a 24-yard field goal [17 plays, 85 yards, 8:56 time of possession]


Red zone stand: After a one-handed grab by Sammy Watkins gained 17, Moore found Travis Kelce for 10 more to the Minnesota 26-yard line, the Vikings got stingy. Even though Kansas City ran 10 more plays, the Chiefs stalled at the 6-yard line.


Q2, 0:06 remaining


Chiefs 10, Vikings 10



Bailey kicks a 29-yard field goal [12 plays, 57 yards, 1:36 time of possession]


Overturned: Treadwell had a reception of 19 that helped move Minnesota into field goal range. The play was initially ruled as offensive pass interference, but the call was overturned after a review by officials.

Vikings 16, Chiefs 10



Ameer Abdullah catches a 16-yard pass from Cousins (PAT is wide left) [5 plays, 38 yards, 3:01 time of possession]


Waltzing in: The Vikings capitalized on a pair of mistakes by the Chiefs. After a fumble by Mecole Hardman on the opening kickoff of the second half, Minnesota scored five plays later when Kansas City had a missed assignment on defense, leaving Abdullah wide open to waltz in for his first touchdown with the Vikings.


Q3, 6:13 remaining


Chiefs 17, Vikings 16



Damien Williams rushes for a 91-yard touchdown (Butker kicks PAT) [2 plays, 97 yards, 0:48 time of possession]


Long gone: Williams made it through the line untouched, and showed his speed that was only matched by Hill on the play.


Q3, 0:30 remaining


Chiefs 20, Vikings 16



Butker kicks a 45-yard field goal [7 plays, 39 yards, 2:58 time of possession]


Well-timed blitz: The Vikings executed an effective blitz on third-and-12 to force the throw to come out early on third-and-12.

Chef’s selection: Dalvin Cook gained 12 and 7 on consecutive runs when the Vikings went with a little bit of tempo. He also turned a screen pass into a 22-yard gain.


Vikings 23, Chiefs 23


Butker kicks a 54-yard field goal [8 plays, 38 yards, 4:05]


Bouncing back: After a 41-yard reception by Hill, the Vikings forced negative plays with a tackle for loss by Everson Griffen and a sack by Harrison Smith to stop the Chiefs momentum.


Chiefs 26, Vikings 23


Butker kicks a 44-yard field goal [5 plays, 19 yards, 1:47]


Good then bad: The Vikings created a loss of 14 on the first play of the drive that began at the Minnesota 45-yard line, but then gave up a 20-yard pass to Kelce and 10-yarder to Hill to allow the Chiefs well within Butker’s range.
