- Thread starter Cloned
- Start date
News out of Germany now saying that it was just a "knock / bump"and he isn't expected to miss any time. Davies is expected to start in Bayern's game vs Leipzig on Saturday.

Apparently Davies is still with the team per Sportsnet with an update on Davies expected this evening or tomorrow morning.
Alphonso Davies still with Canada, update on health to come

Finding Hyman
They were specifically booing anytime Canada had the ball and might be delaying and spefically booed when Davies went down and couldn't get up. Class all day by the US fans where nothing and nobody matters except US winning. The same type of people boo'ed Wayne Gretzky.
Their boos are the same as applause.
They were booing every single time Borjan the goalkeeper had the ball. Then there was that obnoxious "USA! USA!" chant when there was a short scuffle in the first half.
Anyways, Davies is not playing against El Salvador so it looks like Canada has its work cut out for them. Hopefully guys like Buchanan can pick up the slack, just like in the Gold Cup.

I’d say there was a good chance Davies wouldn’t be playing tonight anyway even if he was fully healthy. 3 games in a week would be a lot for someone who runs as much as he does on the pitch.
Id roll him out there to cherry pick.
GO AHEAD dont mark him.
(I hope they are doing some gamesmanship)
BTW, the announcing is quite amateurish. Unfortunately, Paramount+ doesn't have the game streaming elsewhere. I'd take a neutral commentary over a bad one.

Some facilities in Central America don’t have it so no one else can have it.

Although it pains me to say this since the game is in Toronto 
, but the fans are hyped and the atmosphere looks fun.

As someone who doesn't follow soccer that close.
What position in their group does Canada need to play to make the world cup.

Top 3 to auto qualify 4th to be in a "second chance" qualifier pretty sure
Top 3. 4th place plays a "playoff" against a team from the Asian qualifiers I believe.
Top 3 teams make it straight to World Cup. Fourth goes to a playoff with another soccer confederation for a spot. With Mexico always locking down a spot there are two more up for grabs. The US isn’t the powerhouse they used to be so can’t pencil them in a spot like before.

Thanks for the info.
The fans at this game looked electric.

Meh
Honduras and Panama are doing well this year it seems. Might come down to Mexico/Canada/Honduras/Panama for the top 4
Going to be a battle, especially the away games in those cities. Fun times for actually having a team Canada that has a chance to qualify.
