The first quarter of this one has come and gone at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, with the Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco 49ers tied at 7-7.
The 49ers won the toss and deferred to the second half, giving the Minnesota offense the football first. The Vikings’ offense quickly went three-and-out, and Jordan Berry’s punt put the home team at their own 29-yard line to get things started. The Niners picked up a first down and moved the ball into Minnesota territory, but the drive was ended when Jimmy Garoppolo’s pass was intercepted by Harrison Smith, his first pick of the year.
