The San Francisco 49ers may have struck first, but the Minnesota Vikings have answered.

Trailing 7-0 in their Divisional Round playoff matchup on Sunday, the Vikings scored a first-quarter touchdown of their own, with Kirk Cousins finding wide receiver Stefon Diggs for the 41-yard score:

What's crazy is it looked somewhat familiar to Diggs' game-winning touchdown against the New Orleans Saints in the Divisional Round of the playoffs two years ago.

Of course, this catch was much less dramatic, but it was still huge, nonetheless.

Minnesota is coming off of an emotional overtime win over the Saints in the Wild Card Round last weekend, a game in which Diggs was relatively quiet with a couple of catches for 19 yards.

But he certainly wasn't quiet during the regular season.

In spite of a slow start to 2019, Diggs ended up hauling in 63 receptions for 1,130 yards and six scores.

The Vikings won 10 games on the year.
