Canada
6–0
Qatar
Canada earned the first World Cup win in their men's national team history, defeating Qatar 6-0 at BC Place in Vancouver, with Jonathan David scoring a hat-trick (29', 45+3', 90+2'). Cyle Larin opened the scoring in the 16th minute and Nathan Saliba bent home a free-kick to make it four. Tarek Al Manai inadvertently turned the ball into his own net in the 75th minute, and David completed his hat-trick deep into stoppage time. Qatar finished with nine players after two red cards — Homam Ahmed dismissed in the first half and Assim Madibo sent off early in the second half for a tackle that left Ismaël Koné stretchered off with a serious leg injury. Canada join Switzerland on four points at the top of Group B with qualification within sight. A perfect call: all four of our AI models landed — Claude (Canada to win), ChatGPT (over 1.5 goals), Gemini (Canada or draw) and DeepSeek (Qatar not to score) were all correct in a 6-0 rout. The eleventh perfect prediction of the tournament.

Canada hold the home edge and greater quality, but Qatar's deep block and recent resilience make an outright win far from certain — the double chance captures Canada's advantage while respecting Qatar's stubbornness.
