49ers Take the Lead

August 26th, 2012 - 4:52pm by Sam Davis

With less than 10 minutes left in regulation, the 49ers grabbed their first lead of the game, 26-24, on a fourth David Akers field goal.

The 32-yard kick capped off a nine-play, 49-yard drive highlighted by a 27-yard Rock Cartwright run.

On the final third down of the possession, rookie defensive lineman Malik Jackson hit quarterback Scott Tolzien on a scramble up the middle and forced a fumble, but San Francisco recovered and kicked the field goal on the next play.
