NFL play-off results: Philadelphia Eagles hold on to beat Los Angeles Rams
The Philadelphia Eagles moved to within one game of the Super Bowl after holding on for a thrilling win in the snow against the Los Angeles Rams.
The Eagles looked to have booked a place in the NFC Championship game when Saquon Barkley raced clear for his second touchdown, making it 28-15 with under five minutes left.
But the Rams hit straight back with a Colby Parkinson touchdown and then forced a swift three-and-out from the Eagles, meaning they got the ball back with just over two minutes left.
Veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford, who led the Rams to Super Bowl glory in 2022, has pulled off 51 game-winning drives and seemed set for another when Puka Nacua made a superb catch on his shoulder to take the Rams to Philly’s 21-yard line.
But the Eagles defence stepped up to keep the Rams out of the end zone and reach their second NFC Championship game in three years.
They will host the Washington Commanders next Sunday for a place in Super Bowl 59.
