Pineiro's 36-yard field goal in OT lifts Panthers to 20-17 win over Giants in Germany

MUNICH (AP) — Eddy Pineiro kicked a 36-yard field goal in overtime and the Carolina Panthers made it back-to-back wins for the first time this season, beating the New York Giants 20-17 in Germany on Sunday.

The Giants (2-8) won the coin toss to start overtime, but rookie running back Tyrone Tracy fumbled on the first play from scrimmage and Josey Jewell recovered at the 23 for the Panthers (3-7).

“I just didn’t hold the ball correctly,” Tracy said. “I was trying to make a move, so I got in a hole. Got to get the ball up. That’s on me. I’ve got to live with it. I hold myself to a high standard, so whenever that happens, all of my emotions kind of came out of me at that moment.”

Veteran defensive tackle A'Shawn Robinson, who played for the Giants last season, forced the fumble. As a big soccer fan, he'd been feeding off the energy of playing in one of Europe's most famous soccer stadiums.
