Brandon Aubrey did his part for the Dallas Cowboys in Rio de Janeiro. Three times he put points on the board, the last a 23-yard field goal that tied the game with seven seconds to go. The other team's kicker had the final word.

Tyler Loop made a 56-yard field goal as time expired to give the Baltimore Ravens a 34-31 win Sunday at Maracanã Stadium. The announced crowd of 72,792 saw the NFL's first game in Rio and its third in Brazil.

A back-and-forth game

Aubrey's 28-yard field goal and a 2-yard touchdown run by Javonte Williams put Dallas up 10-0 in the first quarter. Baltimore took over from there behind Derrick Henry, who scored on runs of 4 and 3 yards, and led 24-13 after Lamar Jackson's 4-yard touchdown pass to Chris Moore in the third quarter.

Dallas pulled even and then some. Dak Prescott's 19-yard touchdown pass to Jake Ferguson and a two-point conversion to CeeDee Lamb made it 24-21, and KaVontae Turpin's 9-yard touchdown run gave the Cowboys a 28-24 lead in the fourth quarter.

The last 90 seconds

Jackson's 2-yard touchdown pass to rookie tight end Matt Hibner put Baltimore ahead 31-28 with 1:30 left. Prescott led the Cowboys into range for Aubrey's tying kick. With seven seconds left, Jackson completed a 27-yard pass to Zay Flowers and called timeout with one second remaining, setting up Loop's winner, according to the Associated Press.

Leaders

Prescott finished 25 of 40 for 276 yards and a touchdown. Williams had 98 rushing yards on 19 carries, and Lamb caught seven passes for 112 yards. Jackson completed 15 of 20 passes for 186 yards and two touchdowns, and Henry ran for 89 yards.

Dallas is 1-2. Baltimore is 2-1.
