Tears of joy from Bayern star Alphonso Davies (21) following Canada’s World Cup qualification!
In a live stream on the “Twitch” portal, Canadian Bayern star Alphonso Davies films himself watching the decisive World Cup qualifier once morest Jamaica on Sunday (4-0) on TV.
Then the emotional high point: Davies, who was unable to play for his country due to a heart muscle infection caused by corona disease, bursts into tears at the final whistle and collapses on the ground in his Canada jersey!
Davies says, “Oh my god, oh my god! We made it!”
Because: Canada has reached the finals of a World Cup for the first time in 36 years, most recently at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. The ‘golden’ goals once morest Jamaica on Sunday came from Larin (13′), Buchanan (44′), Hoilett (82′) and Mariappa (88′).
Canada secured first place ahead of the USA in the Concacaf Confederation’s World Cup qualifiers with 28 points.
For Davies, an appearance at the Winter World Cup in Qatar (November 21 to December 18) might also be realistic once more!
Last Tuesday, the Canadian Bayern professional returned to the training ground on Säbener Strasse in Munich for the first time. For weeks he was not allowed to do anything because of the heart muscle inflammation, which was diagnosed on January 12th.
If next week goes perfectly, Davies might be back in the squad once morest SC Freiburg and fit in time for the Champions League quarter-finals once morest Villarreal (6 & 12 April).
And then he might also be part of Canada’s World Cup comeback following a 36-year absence!
