Vancouver —
The Canadian national team began its second match in the 2026 World Cup against Qatar at B.C. Place Stadium in Vancouver, amid a large crowd and an enthusiastic atmosphere under a sunny sky.

Canada enters the match seeking its first win in the tournament, after starting its journey with a draw against Bosnia and Herzegovina, making the encounter with Qatar an important stage to enhance its chances of qualifying for the round of 32.

The match holds special importance for Canada, as a win will place it in a better position within the group and bring it closer to achieving a historic achievement by qualifying for the knockout stages in an edition held on its home soil.
