BERLIN — Canadian teenager Alphonso Davies opened his account for Bayern Munich with a goal off the bench Sunday in a record-setting 6-0 rout of Mainz. Introduced in the 59th minute, Davies was in the right place at the right time in the 70th minute, acrobatically using his left foot to knock in a rebound from a Robert Lewandowski shot. Davies, 18, became the first Canadian goal-scorer for Bayern and the first Canadian to get a goal in the Bundesliga since Marcel de Jong in 2013. The deal was consummated in July but Davies closed out the MLS season before joining Bayern in January. Robert Lewandowski, James Rodriguez and Kingsley Coman scored in a one-sided first half, before James completed his hat trick and Davies grabbed his first goal for Bayern.
