East Rutherford (dpa) – The Dallas Cowboys won a defensive game against the New York Giants in the NFL. The team around quarterback Dak Prescott won away from home in the North American Football League against New York with 20:15 (14:9) and held the hosts without a touchdown. This gave the Cowboys their seventh win in a row against the Giants.

Prescott also won the quarterback duel against New York’s Daniel Jones. Dallas’ playmaker threw two touchdown passes: in the first quarter over 15 yards to Rico Dowdle and in the second quarter over 55 yards to CeeDee Lamb. The guests took the lead with 14:6. Brandon Aubrey hit two field goals in the second half.

New York Giants only score on field goals

The Giants only scored through field goals, kicker Greg Jospeh shot through the goal post five times, setting his career high. The Giants had already gone without a touchdown in the 6:28 home defeat at the season opener against Minnesota.

New York’s quarterback Daniel Jones covered 281 yards with his passing game, but his last pass of almost 70 yards was intercepted in the final seconds by Cowboys defender Amani Oruwariye to make the decision.

Thanks to this success, the Cowboys have a record of two wins and two defeats, while the Giants have only won one of their four games this season.
