Alphonso Davies likely to miss Canada’s World Cup opener

Canada captain Alphonso Davies isn’t with the national squad as it prepares for this summer’s World Cup with a training camp in Charlotte, N.C. Head coach Jesse Marsch says the Bayern Munich standout is still in Germany recovering from a hamstring injury and is expected to join the team in Edmonton ahead of a friendly against Uzbekistan, but it’s unlikely that Davies will play in Canada’s first game of the tournament.
