After being named to the starting XI in the Nations League final for the USMNT, Adams repaid Gregg Berhalter with a brilliant effort. Tim Weah found Weston McKennie in the corner, who then cut back and found Adams who hit the ball first time from nearly 30 yards out.
The powerful effort caught everyone by surprise, with Mexico goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa being stuck flat-footed watching the line drive effort blaze by him into the back of the net.
It ended up being the first of two goals, with Gio Reyna doubling their lead in the second half, seeing the U.S. claiming their third-straight CONCACAF Nations League title.
