The Green Bay Packers squandered a 14-point first-half lead, didn’t score on offense in the second half and eventually lost to the New York Giants by a 27-22 final score on Sunday in London.
Coach Matt LaFleur didn’t mince words about the performance and the disappointment of the defeat.
“Obviously, this is as disappointing as it gets for us,” LaFleur said. “Give New York all the credit. They out-coached us, out-played us, they definitely wanted it more. It was the tale of two halves.”
The Packers held leads of 17-3 and 20-10 in the first half, but everything fell apart in the second half.
