It’s time to get those four fingers well above your heads, ladies and gentlemen, as we’re moving to the fourth quarter at Croke Park in Dublin with your Minnesota Vikings trailing the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 21-6.

The Vikings got the ball first, having won the coin toss and deferred to the second half, but they couldn’t move the football and quickly went three-and-out. The Steelers reciprocated with a three-and-out of their own, which was nice of them.

Minnesota then moved the ball into Steelers’ territory, but they then turned the ball over again as Carson Wentz’s pass was deflected again and wound up in the hands of T.J. Watt for another Pittsburgh interception, setting them up in Minnesota territory at the 34-yard line.

Pittsuburgh turned the interception into points, with Kenneth Gainwell getting his second touchdown of the day, going over from 4 yards out to extend Pittsburgh’s lead to 15 at 21-6. The Vikings got the ball back after the touchdown and immediately went three-and-out, as the offensive line continues to collapse.

It’s going to take a huge effort for the Vikings to come back in this one, as they trail the Steelers by a score of 21-6. Come on in and join us for the final fifteen minutes of action from Dublin!
