July 13 – According to Mexican media outlet TUDN, Canada captain Alphonso Davies sustained a right ankle injury in the semi-final match, leaving his participation in the Copa América third-place match against Uruguay in doubt.
Davies reportedly picked up the ankle injury in the semi-final clash against Argentina during a challenge. While initial examinations revealed no serious damage, the ankle is still causing discomfort.
Canadian head coach John Herdman admitted in a press conference that he is still unsure about Davies’ availability. After disclosing the injury news to reporters, Herdman questioned the officiating at the Copa América, stating, “One of the main jobs of the referee is to protect the players. They did not do that.”
