Bayern Munich's Alphonso Davies sat out Sunday's match against Bochum due to a muscle issue, the team announced prior to the game. 

Jamal Musiala was also unavailable for Bayern as he was dealing with a ligament injury.

Bayern defeated Bochum 7-0 and improved to 3-0-0 in the Bundesliga standings. 

Davies, 21, appeared in each of Bayern's first two games but has yet to tally any goals, assists, or shots. 

Davies suffered an LCL tear last year while preparing for the 2021 Gold Cup with Canada, but returned for a pair of World Cup qualifying wins in November in Edmonton. 

However, Davies was sidelined again in December of 2021 due to symptoms of a mild heart condition following a bout of COVID-19 and missed several months of action.

Davies eventually returned to Bayern's lineup for a Champions League quarter-final match in April of this year.
