Alouettes Rally with Late Surge, Grey Cup Battle Intensifies

UPDATE: The Montreal Alouettes are staging a dramatic comeback in the 112th Grey Cup against the Saskatchewan Roughriders at Winnipeg’s Princess Auto Stadium, scoring 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter. As the clock ticks down, the score stands at 25-17 in favor of the Roughriders with less than seven minutes remaining.

The atmosphere is electric as the Alouettes fight back after trailing by as much as 18 points earlier in the game. A recent field goal by Jose Maltos Diaz has reignited their hopes, closing the gap and bringing the Alouettes within striking distance.

As the fourth quarter unfolds, the Alouettes are not only fighting for the championship but also aiming to complete a historic comeback. If successful, this would mark the second-largest deficit overcome in Grey Cup history, previously set by the Edmonton Elks in 1981 when they rallied from a 20-point deficit.

The game, which kicked off at 5 p.m. ET, features two of the CFL’s best coaches: Corey Mace of the Roughriders and Jason Maas of the Alouettes. Both teams entered the championship after dominant playoff performances, with Saskatchewan securing the best regular season record at 12-6 and Montreal following closely behind at 10-8.

Earlier in the game, the Roughriders showcased their offensive prowess, highlighted by a 34-yard touchdown pass from Trevor Harris to Tommy Nield. The Roughriders quickly established momentum, scoring three touchdowns and leading 22-7 at one point in the third quarter.

Both teams are now fully engaged in this high-stakes battle, with fans on the edge of their seats. Official sources report that Saskatchewan’s defense has stepped up, but the Alouettes are proving resilient and hungry for victory.
