Bears vs. Vikings Live Updates: Scores, Stats, Highlights, and Injuries from Monday Night Football

-

 Defense has been the key so far in Minnesota, where the Vikings lead the Bears 13-0 at halftime in a division matchup.


The Vikings' defense made a big play on the first drive when Jonathan Greenard and Jerry Tillery stopped D'Andre Swift on fourth-and-1. Minnesota turned that stop into a field goal by Will Reichard.


The defense made another big play soon after when Greenard forced a fumble on a sack of Caleb Williams. The Vikings' offense took advantage, with Sam Darnold throwing a 7-yard touchdown pass to Justin Jefferson late in the first quarter.


Chicago's defense has tried to keep the Bears in the game. Tyrique Stevenson intercepted Darnold deep in Chicago territory, but the Bears' offense couldn’t do anything with it. Swift was stopped again on another fourth-down try late in the half.


 The Vikings took advantage of the stop and added another field goal from Reichard before halftime.

Liverpool will 'stay humble' - but lead at top 'feels different'

-
At first it was just a small section of fans singing it. 'Liverpool, Liverpool, top of the league... Liverpool, top of the league' they chanted after Curtis Jones marked his 100th Premier League appearance by sweeping his side into a 2-1 lead against struggling Leicester. It was much louder after Mohamed Salah scored his 19th club goal of the season in the 82nd minute to seal a 3-1 win. Having fallen behind in the fifth minute, Liverpool were well on their way to a win that propelled them seven points clear at the top with one game in hand on their nearest rivals. Of course, Liverpool have been here before. In the 2018-19 season, they led by 10 points only for Manchester City to win the title. "It feels different," Salah, who is out of contract in the summer, told Amazon Prime about Liverpool's advantage at the top after overcoming Leicester. "But the most important thing is we need to stay humble. "This one is very special, hopefully we win the...

Notre Dame Defeats Indiana in Historic Expanded CFP Opener

-
Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman was thrilled after the historic win. "I've never experienced anything like that," he said. "It’s rare in life to be the first to do something, but tonight, we were the first to play and win a playoff game in Notre Dame Stadium. That’s something we’ll cherish forever." Defensive coordinator Al Golden, who has helped build a strong defense, reflected on the significance of the moment. "Notre Dame's history is so rich that it's hard to be part of a 'first,' but now everyone in that locker room can say they were part of history," Golden said. Notre Dame jumped to a 14-0 lead early, thanks to Jeremiyah Love’s record-breaking 98-yard touchdown run and a long 16-play drive ending in Riley Leonard’s pass to Jayden Thomas. Love’s run was the longest in CFP history, tied for the longest in Notre Dame history, and the longest play Indiana has ever allowed. Despite recovering from a knee injury and illness, Love ma...
