A touchdown from Frank Gore has handed the San Francisco 49ers the advantage at the break in their NFC West match against the Seattle Seahawks.
Both sides had a poor start to the game on offense in the first quarter, but the Seahawks finally managed to get into gear as Russell Wilson completed a crucial third down to Doug Baldwin. The 49ers' defense tightened in the red zone and managed to hold the home side to a field goal.
Jim Harbaugh's side found success in their running game as Carlos Hyde and Gore were able to break through the line with ease. Gore made a huge play for the visitors when he powered through on fourth down to find the endzone and hand his team the lead.
Neither side could add to the scoreline in their final drives as both defenses controlled proceedings. Wilson and Colin Kaepernick were both sacked for big losses, while on the final play of the half the Seahawks quarterback was picked off by Eric Reid.
