the score

The moon shot tied the score 1-1.

Kevin Fiala got the Kings’ only goal on the team’s third power play of the final period, though the score, coming with less than five minutes to play, was little more than a murmur of protest.

But they did not, which meant the ensuing single did not tie the score.

In a text message, Atkins said, “I went back and watched the film just to make sure there wasn’t any malice or that it didn’t look like we were trying to run up the score. Honestly, there was nothing more we could have done short of sitting our guys for the entire game.”

The score was tied 23-23 at the end of regulation after the Rams blew a chance to win when Williams fumbled at the 49ers’ one-yard line – but then tied the score on Karty’s 48-yard field goal with two seconds left.
