Top scorer Anderson kicks a memorable goal in dying seconds

GARY ANDERSON made what could be his final kick at the Metrodome a memorable one.

The American National Football League’s all-time leading scorer drilled a 53-yard field goal that grazed the right upright and sneaked over the crossbar with 17 seconds left, lifting the Minnesota Vikings to a thrilling 20-17 victory over the Miami Dolphins.

The loss hurt Miami’s chances for a first-round playoff bye, but the Dolphins still can win the AFC East division title with a victory at New England next week.
