Calgary Stampeders Secure Overtime Win Against Winnipeg Blue Bombers With Dramatic Field Goal

The Calgary Stampeders clinched a thrilling 22-19 victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers at McMahon Stadium, with Rene Paredes’ 52-yard field goal in overtime proving to be the decisive moment.

Prior to Paredes’ game-winning kick, Demerio Houston intercepted a pass from Winnipeg’s Chris Streveler in the end zone, setting the stage for a dramatic finish.

In a battle of resilience, the Stampeders (2-1) outlasted the winless Blue Bombers (0-4) in front of an enthusiastic crowd of 22,386 fans.

Marken Michel contributed significantly with a touchdown reception from quarterback Jake Maier, while Cody Grace added valuable points with three punt singles in this intense matchup.

Drew Wolitarsky’s late fourth-quarter touchdown for the Blue Bombers threatened to shift the outcome, but Calgary stood firm under pressure.

Zach Collaros started at quarterback for Winnipeg, leading the offensive charge until a formidable hit from the Stamps’ Josiah Coatney forced him out of the game, paving the way for Chris Streveler.

Throughout the game, both teams showcased defensive prowess, with notable performances from Clarence Hicks, Cameron Judge, and Reggie Begelton on the Stampeders’ side, and Sergio Castillo on the Blue Bombers’ roster.

Looking forward, the Blue Bombers are scheduled to face the Ottawa Redblacks, while the Stampeders will next take on the undefeated Montreal Alouettes, in what promises to be another enthralling chapter in the CFL.

This nail-biting encounter at McMahon Stadium will go down as a memorable showdown, with pivotal plays from key players shaping the final result.
