Canada sits atop Group B at World Cup 2026

Canada coach Jesse Marsch  has done an excellent job in picking his starting line ups and situational substitutions. After his team came out the blocks a bit lethargic in the first half of game one against Bosnia, coach Marsch brought in forward Cyle Larin who silenced his doubters with a well hit right footer that salvaged a draw and gave Canada a very important point. It was the first point for Canada at a FIFA World Cup.

Getting that point was like getting the monkey off their backs and coach Marsch obliged by reinserting Larin into his starting line up for Canada’s second game for what many thought was a must win game against Qatar. And Larin did not disappoint by scoring the opening goal of the game that set the tone for Jonathan David to score a hattrick and Canada a 6-0 win. Stay Tuned!
