Part of north London became north America on Sunday as British NFL fans and even soccer-mad players enjoyed the first of three mini Super Bowls in London with the Minnesota Vikings beating the New York Jets 23-17 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

We are five weeks into the 2024 NFL season, and that means it’s time for some early-morning football in America. First up in the “London Games” segment of the NFL’s International Series is an intriguing battle between the undefeated Minnesota Vikings and the 2-2 New York Jets.

In the 37th game in London and ninth at the home of Premier League soccer side Spurs, the Vikings extended their impressive start to the NFL season to five wins from five, while it was a second successive defeat for the Jets.
