Ché Adams
Key involvement in only goal
Adams registered one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 victory over Haiti.
Analysis: Adams was crucial to the scoring of the only goal as Scotland won their World Cup opener against Haiti 1-0. He took a brilliant touch as a long ball was played over the top. After playing the ball out to Ben Gannon Doak, the ball was crossed back into the middle. The keeper came to stop the cross at Adams' feet, and his shot was parried out to John McGinn, who would score the only goal of the match. This was the only shot of the game for Adams.
Scores in Juventus fixture
Adams scored one goal to go with two shots (two on target) and one clearance in 34 minutes in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Juventus.
Analysis: Adams tied the game off the bench, pouncing on a ball that lingered in the box and slotting it home with the help of a deflection. His minutes dipped late in the season following a small thigh injury. He wasn't as effective as in 2024/2025, concluding with six goals, two assists, 53 shots (18 on target) and 26 key passes in 33 displays (19 starts).
Good to go for Sassuolo game
Adams (thigh) "will be called up for Friday, then we'll have to decide how many minutes he can handle," coach Roberto D'Aversa announced.
Analysis: Adams has recovered quickly from a thigh issue, missing just one fixture. The gaffer seemingly alluded that he won't get the nod right away. Alieu Njie and Sandro Kulenovic are in better shape than he and Duvan Zapata (thigh). He has scored once and notched four shots (one on target), two chances created and one cross (one accurate) in his last five appearances (three starts).
Nursing thigh injury
Adams is dealing with a partial rectus femoris strain, Torino announced.
Analysis: Adams will likely miss more tilts in addition to the upcoming Udinese one, as he suffered a proper injury and not just some discomfort. Alieu Njie and Sandro Kulenovic are the next men up with him and Duvan Zapata (thigh) out of commission.
Questionable for Udinese match
Adams (undisclosed) "isn't in great shape and will need to be assessed for Saturday," coach Roberto D'Aversa announced.
Analysis: Adams picked up an ailment in training and might be spared in this one. Duvan Zapata (undisclosed) is doubtful, so Sandro Kulenovic or Alieu Njie would join Giovanni Simeone up front if Adams didn't make it or couldn't start.
