Americans Abroad Weekend Rewind: Adams, Pulisic, and more

5 Shares

RB Leipzig remained four points back of Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich, but Tyler Adams helped the club pick up an important road victory to keep the pressure on.

Adams played 90 minutes in RB Leipzig’s 1-0 win over Arminia Bielefeld on Friday, excelling in Julian Nagelsmann’s 3-5-2 formation. The U.S. Men’s National Team midfielder completed 96 of his 103 passes in the match for a 93% passing completion rate. Adams also made four clearances, one interception, and four recoveries to help RB Leipzig post its third clean sheet out of the past four league matches.

The 22-year-old will miss out on USMNT duty this month due to the COVID-19 protocol in Germany, but will hope to play a vital role in RB Leipzig’s next match vs. Bayern Munich.

Elsewhere, Christian Pulisic delivered a Man of the Match performance as Chelsea booked its place in the FA Cup Semifinals. Zack Steffen posted a two-save clean sheet as Manchester City eliminated Everton from FA Cup play. Jordan Siebatcheu added one goal and one assist in a lopsided victory for Young Boys with the striker now heading into USMNT camp. Tyler Boyd scored a brace as Sivasspor picked up an important road league win over Goztepe while John Brooks and Wolfsburg edged Josh Sargent and Werder Bremen in Bundesliga action.

  1. Interesting that Siebatcheu is in such a rich vein of form in league play but started neither Europa League match versus Ajax where they were pummelled mercilessly. Like, don’t you WANT to win?

    • They rotate their strikers quite a bit but Jordan has only started 11 times and 6 of those were when Nsame was either suspended or injured.
      Young Boys Strikers
      Nsame 20g 8a 32 matches (2 red cards)
      Elia 7g 7a 33 matches

  2. I believe Taylor Booth had a goal not an assist. Good to see the abductor injury was minor and he was back in action 2g 2a in 5 matches or 1g 3a if Larry is right.
