DOHA, Qatar — Alphonso Davies hadn't been born the last time Canada played in a World Cup, which really isn't surprising since just one member of the country's national team was alive in 1986, when Canada bowed out in three games without scoring a goal.
But there's another way to measure how long ago that was: Davies, Canada's star winger, is in his fifth season with Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich yet his parents, Victoria and Debeah, were in grade school in 1986 and years away from their first date.
So it's been a while.
