With 1:26 left in the 4th quarter and trailing 16-14, the Alouettes could have kicked the ball deep and tried to force a punt to get the ball back. However, they opted for an onside kick, which was taken by Williams and returned 30 yards to the Montreal 16-yard line. The Riders then kicked a field goal, which made the score 19-14. The Alouettes got the ball back with less than 1 minute left, but couldn't do anything with it and the visitors left with a 19-14 victory.
