The match witnessed an intense climax when a VAR review in the 90+2 minutes awarded Lillestrøm a penalty due to a rough tackle within Rosenborg’s 18-yard box.

However, Adams demonstrated resilience and determination, quickly seizing the rebound and heading it home to secure his brace and ultimately clinch the victory for Lillestrøm SK.
