In a nail-biting encounter at the iconic Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, the Miami Dolphins secured a 16-13 victory over the Washington Commanders in overtime. Jack Jones, the Dolphins' cornerback, played a pivotal role in the win, intercepting Marcus Mariota's pass on the first play of overtime. Jones' celebration, inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo's signature move, was a testament to his excitement and confidence in the team's ability to make a play. The Dolphins' victory marked their first win in the NFL's international series, which has seen a record-breaking seven games this season. The Commanders had a chance to win in regulation but Matt Gay's 56-yard field goal attempt sailed wide right. Gay, who was thrilled to play at the Bernabeu, missed two of his four field goal attempts. The Dolphins, however, managed to hold their ground, with Riley Patterson kicking a 29-yard field goal to seal the win. De'Von Achane led the Dolphins' offense with 120 yards on 21 carries, while Deebo Samuel topped the Commanders with 74 yards receiving. The Dolphins' defense, led by Jordyn Brooks with 20 total tackles, made crucial plays throughout the game. The win gives the Dolphins momentum heading into their bye week, while the Commanders will look to bounce back from their six-game losing streak. The Dolphins will host the New Orleans Saints on November 30, while the Commanders will welcome the Denver Broncos on the same day.
