Soccer player Alphonso Davie’s remarkable goal is the 2nd half is what turned the tables around. Alphonso Davies delivered, the goal showcased his speed, acceleration, flair and not many people seem like they can score a goal like that. It seems like it got the Canadian rapper Drake’s attention since he has asked him if they can meet.
Canada greatly needed the win to climb back over top of Panama and build momentum going into next month when it plays a tricky pair of home games against table-toppers Mexico and Costa Rica. The occasion called for the Canadians to step up in a big way and they didn’t disappoint.
It seems like everyone wants a part of Davies these days, and it’s for good reasons, he has been compared to Christine Sinclair. He has gotten some accolades from his teammates and Coach Herdman, who said Davies’ skills and leadership reminded him of the greatest Canadian soccer player of all time and he should know, he coached her, too. Herman also says that when Davies speaks people listen. So, people that really shows off his confidence and that he knows what he is doing.
Davies says, “I started picking up pace and after that, I just committed to it,” Davies said. “He’s a bigger body than me, so I knew he was going to come with his body, so I tried to slow down to avoid contact and try to keep the ball in. When I did that, it was a two against one and I tried to look for Buchanan, but I beat Escobar and in my mind, I was, ‘Just shoot the ball.’ “So, I shot the ball across the ‘keeper and I’m happy that it went in.”
So with him making great efforts to always being the best and making sure that his team feels supported by him and also being compared to a top legend like Sinclair definitely shows that he is just starting to do his big things, and we just have to wait to see where his potential will hit.
