​  Ahead of Canada’s final group-stage World Cup clash with Switzerland, head coach Jesse Marsch said Alphonso Davies was in line to return from injury for the match.However, after Canada’s 1-2 defeat, Marsch admitted he knew the Bayern Munich star would not actually feature and that he was simply trying to mislead the opposition.“To be honest, Alphonso wasn’t ready yet, so I was using him a little bit as a decoy. However, he will be ready next match,” Marsch said after the game, according to Canadian Soccer Daily.Pressed further, the 52-year-old added that Davies “was never going to play” against Switzerland.“I wanted Switzerland to have to think about him.
