Davies arrived in Qatar on Friday evening after receiving treatment back at Bayern Munich for a hamstring strain suffered Nov. 6 in a Bundesliga game at Hertha Berlin. While Bayern said Davies' participation in Qatar was "not at risk," he has not played since.
Herdman said Eustaquio, perhaps Canada's most influential midfielder, is "day by day" dealing with soreness from a muscle issue suffered in training earlier this week. Borjan, meanwhile, felt "something in his abdomen" during Thursday's 2-1 win over No. 24 Japan in Dubai, said Herdman," getting ready in case. Next man up," he added with what seemed a nervous laugh. "We went through the qualifying campaign and it was like this. We just never seemed to be able to feel like we were able to get what people on paper would say is your top Canadian team. It's just par for the course at the minute. We'll see.
Herdman said while Davies was able to take part in some of the contact work in training, "he's still building towards hitting his top speed." "So it's not something I'm losing sleep over," Herdman said. "I just trust that there's a group of guys that will come together in ways they have to do what's required."
His teammates playfully welcomed him back as the warm-up portion of practice wrapped up, making him run a gauntlet of friendly if firm taps/slaps. Herdman played his part, removing a ball from Davies' hand to help launch him down the human tunnel.
The sport has being growing in this country for years and this is a prime example of it! With even this level of success it’s only gnna grow more! Happy to have this but I’m excited for the future too!
Embarrassing that there’s been next to no publicly for our team. It’s an amazing achievement to make it on the world stage! No commercials, no pop up stores, no new gear, no announced viewing parties, same old jerseys. Terribly mismanaged CanadaSoccerEN CanadaVSTheWorld canada
Our boys need a beer ffs!
🇨🇦 already won by just making the cut. Best wishes to the team.
36 years I hope they all heal up fast. Let's go Canada 🇨🇦
Why you don’t put a World Cup in winter
