two-point conversions
Risky extra points
In American and Canadian football, a two-point conversion is a scoring play attempted immediately after a touchdown, where the team tries to advance the ball into the end zone from the two-yard line instead of kicking the standard one-point extra point.
If successful, the team earns two additional points rather than one.
Teams typically attempt two-point conversions when trailing late in a game or when the extra point would leave them at an awkward score.
They went for the two-point conversion to tie the game.
