What is the story about?
It was a slow day for Bayern Munich at the World Cup on Thursday.
There was some anticipation that Alphonso Davies would play the Canadian national team after Jesse Marsch’s press conference on Wednesday, but the 25-year-old did not play.
Otherwise, Kim Min-jae, who has been linked to both Manchester United and Juventus lately, started and played a key role in a tight loss for South Korea against Mexico.
Let’s take a look at how things went…
