Hello and welcome to our live coverage of today’s historic clash between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Green Bay Packers, the second game in the 2024 NFL season and the first ever regular-season game to take place in Brazil.
Today’s contest is historic for another reason, too: it marks the first time in 50 years that a game will be played on Friday night during Week 1 of the NFL season.
Last season, the Eagles and the Packers both made the postseason as wild-card teams. The Eagles fell at the first hurdle, going down to the Buccaneers, while the Packers upset the Cowboys on the road only to be defeated by the 49ers in the Divisional Round.
Stick with us for all the latest news ahead of today’s game, with updates from our correspondents in Brazil.
