During the NFL International Series game between the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, referee Shawn Hochuli surprised fans by calling a penalty in German, delighting the crowd and commentators alike. This gesture mirrored a similar moment by his father, Ed Hochuli, who called a penalty in Spanish during the NFL's first game in Mexico in 2005. The Panthers led the Giants 10-0 at halftime, with Bryce Young and Chuba Hubbard leading a successful offensive effort against a struggling Giants team. The game marks the end of the 2024 NFL international games, with plans for expanded international play in 2025, including potential games in new locations such as Spain and Ireland. The Giants, on a four-game losing streak, continued to grapple with challenges around quarterback Daniel Jones' performance, highlighting ongoing struggles.
