The Story

Canada Soccer says Alphonso Davies will travel with the men’s senior team to Toronto on Saturday and undergo further assessment after he was injured early in Canada’s 3–2 win over Guatemala in CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal action on Friday.

Davies went down in the fifth minute when he slipped inside Canada’s 18-yard box. After getting up, he tried to block a shot before signalling to the bench.

Canada assistant coach Mauro Biello said Friday night that Davies has a lower-body injury.

The Canada Soccer spokesperson says Davies is scheduled to return to Munich, Germany on Sunday.

Canada and Guatemala will play the second leg on Monday night at Toronto’s BMO Field.
