'I never could have guessed it!' - Davies admits he never could have imagined Champions League triumph

Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies admits he never would have guessed he would become the first Canadian to win the Champions League.

The 19-year-old defender played the full 90 minutes as his German side defeated Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 in the final on Sunday.

It's been a breakout season for Davies, who only began playing for Bayern's first-team in 2019 after joining the club a year prior from MLS outfit Vancouver Whitecaps.
