Born on December 13, 1996, in Airdrie, North Lanarkshire, Scotland, 'Adams began his youth career with Queen's Park before joining Sheffield United in 2014.' He made his professional debut in 2015 and has since played for Birmingham City and Southampton.
He earned his first cap for Scotland in 2020.
Law, who played for Torino between 1960 and 1964, set the record back in 1963 when he scored in each of his team’s first four European Cup group stage matches. Adams became the seventh player to achieve this feat in Group C.
The European Cup, now known as the UEFA Champions League, has a rich history dating back to 1955.
The first winner was Real Madrid, who dominated the competition in its early years, winning five consecutive titles from 1956 to 1960.
The record for most European Cup wins is held by Real Madrid with 14 titles, followed closely by AC Milan and Liverpool with seven each.
The competition has undergone several format changes over the years, but it remains one of the most prestigious club competitions in football.
