Photos: San Francisco 49ers defeat Minnesota Vikings win streak to extend win streak to three games

The San Francisco 49ers are now 6-5 after their win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.

The 49ers emerged with a 34-26 win thanks to a scoring outburst midway through and only after a barrage of injuries took out star players including Deebo Samuel, who left the game in the second half with a groin injury. He said he’s “not too concerned” ahead of an upcoming MRI.

“We have no idea what it’s going to be like. I don’t think it’s as bad as you worry,” coach Kyle Shanahan said. “We’re hoping it’s a low strain. He feels that it might be.”

Exiting earlier were linebackers Fred Warner (hamstring) and Dre Greenlaw (groin), plus backup running back Trey Sermon (ankle).

The 49ers’ win streak now hits the road, with a date next Sunday in Seattle (3-7) before a Dec. 12 visit to Cincinnati (7-4).
