Solid defensive work in win
Adams recorded four tackles (two won), two clearances and four interceptions in Friday's 2-0 victory versus Australia.
Analysis: Adams has created one chance in both games so far in the World Cup, but his defensive-minded role as the team's holding midfielder suggests he'll continue to earn most of his fantasy upside through defensive stats. He's expected to continue anchoring the midfield unless manager Mauricio Pochettino decides to tweak the XI for the group-stage finale against Turkiye on Thursday, June 25.
Plays 90 Friday
Adams recorded one chance created and three interceptions in Friday's 4-1 win over Paraguay.
Analysis: Adams started as expected Friday and was in his usual role, controlling the middle of the field as an anchor ahead of the defense. He did well to stop much from getting near his defense, notching three interceptions and two tackles, completing 52 passes in the process. However, he would suffer a yellow card, something to watch in the group stage.
