USMNT star Adams scores from near halfway line
Bournemouth midfielder Tyler Adams scored from near the center circle to put his side up 2-0 on Sunderland in the Premier League on Saturday.
Adams, 26, scored his first Premier League goal with the equalizer against Manchester City earlier this month. The U.S. men’s national team international doubled his tally with a world-class effort.

With Sunderland on the attack, the Cherries turned the ball over, and Adams saw goalkeeper Robin Roefs off his line only to loft it over him from about 50 yards.
The goal was officially measured at 47.4 yards, which is the longest goal of the season — beating Tottenham’s Richarlison, who netted from 38.6 yards vs. Arsenal last week.
However, Sunderland came back during the rest of the game to seal an incredible 3-2 win.
Adams was taken off the national team squad for the friendlies against Paraguay and Uruguay after crashing into teammate Adam Smith in the third minute of their 4-0 loss to Aston Villa. But at least he seems to have recovered well.
