Bayern Munich's Jamal Musiala Fractured His Leg in Collision at Club World Cup
Bayern said Sunday that Musiala had flown back from Florida to Munich that morning for surgery on the injury he picked up in Saturday's 2-0 loss to PSG in the quarterfinals.
Bayern said doctors found Musiala "sustained a fracture of the fibula associated with an ankle dislocation."
"This serious injury and the lengthy lay-off are a real shock for Jamal and us all," Bayern board member for sport Max Eberl said in a statement. "Jamal has just come back from an injury and will now be out for another long period. He'll get everything he needs from us. We'll support him intensively, be by his side and already look forward to when he's back on the pitch."

Alvarez's tiebreaking goal gives Mexico 2-1 win over U.S. for 10th Gold Cup title
HOUSTON (AP) — Edson Álvarez scored a tiebreaking goal in the 77th minute after a video review reversed an offside call, and Mexico beat the United States 2-1 on Sunday night for its record 10th CONCACAF Gold Cup title. Chris Richards put the U.S. ahead in the fourth minute, heading in a Sebastian Berhalter free kick for the second time in the tournament, but Raúl Jiménez tied the score in the 27th with his third goal of this Gold Cup. Mexico was awarded the free kick when Diego Luna fouled Alexis Vega on a flank. Johan Vásquez flicked the restart across the goalmouth and Álvarez burst past the defence, redirecting the ball from three yards just inside Matt Freese's far post. While the play was initially called offside, the goal was awarded by the VAR, and Mexico defended its title from 2023 while improving to 6-2 in Gold Cup finals against the U.S. Patrick Agyemang had a chance two minutes into stoppage time but he didn't make good contact on his short-range shot that was blocked by goalkeeper Luis Malagón. 'We're disappointed obviously to not come away with a win,' U.S. captain Tim Ream said. A sellout crowd of 70,925 at NRG Stadium was about 70 per cent pro-Mexico and booed U.S. players when they walked out for pre-game warm-ups. Mexico dominated with 60 per cent possession and had 12 corner kicks to none for the Americans. This was the final competitive match for the U.S. and Mexico before co-hosting next year's World Cup with Canada. The U.S., which has seven Gold Cup titles but none since 2021, used a starting lineup with only a handful of players currently projected as World Cup starters, missing regulars due to vacation, injuries and the Club World Cup. Coach Mauricio Pochettino used their absence to evaluate players who could push for starting jobs during the friendlies this fall and next spring, and Luna, Agyemang and Freese emerged as contenders for World Cup roster spots. Richards put the U.S. in front when he headed Berhalter's free kick from about 40 yards off the crossbar. The ball bounced straight down and just crossed the goal line. Jiménez scored his 42nd international goal, third-most in Mexican history. He burst past the defence and one-timed the pass from Marcel Ruiz, beating Freese from about 10 yards on a shot that might have nicked Ream. Jiménez celebrated by grabbing a Mexico No. 20 jersey with 'DIOGO J' in honour of Diogo Jota, his former Wolverhampton teammate who died in a car crash Thursday in Spain. Jiménez ran to a corner, sat down with the jersey and mimicked playing a video game. ___ AP soccer:
