TORONTO, Canada—All eyes were on the Canadian.
The big matchup prior to the FC Barcelona-Bayern Munich UEFA Champions League quarter-final was Lionel Messi vs Alphonso Davies.
It a weird way, it made sense to focus in on the fact that a six-time Ballon D’or winner was up against a 19-year-old Canadian who despite shifting to left wing-back last year, has put himself in the conversation as one of the world’s best.
But now as we reflect on the match, should we consider this performance to be a ‘Canadian Heritage moment’?
