Summary
Alphonso Davies made a brief, restrained return to the World Cup pitch, playing only the final 15 minutes and holding back his signature speed — a subtle cameo. Meanwhile, Stephan Eustaquio stole the spotlight, donning the captain’s armband and scoring the winner in stoppage time after battling through a grueling year-long knee injury. His grit, discipline, and relentless work ethic earned him the coach’s praise as the most deserving player in the moment. South Africa’s coach called Canada a “modern team,” lauding their disciplined pressure and collective structure — not individual brilliance — as the true engine behind the victory.
