How to Watch Canada vs. Qatar Live: World Cup Coverage
Canada aims for a historic victory on Thursday when they face Qatar in a match that could be crucial for advancing to the knockout rounds. The Canadians earned their first-ever World Cup point last week thanks to Cyle Larin’s deflected goal securing a 1–1 draw against Bosnia & Herzegovina. This result keeps Group B wide open.
Qatar also grabbed a surprising draw in their opener against Switzerland, defying expectations and statistics. If they win this game, Qatar could move closer to reaching the knockout stage for the first time ever as tournament co-hosts.
A win for either side would almost guarantee a spot in the last 32, since four points are usually enough to progress. The question remains: who will claim their first World Cup victory here?

"Qatar pulled off an unlikely result against Switzerland last week," noted observers. "Neither team can clinch qualification or face elimination on Thursday, so all eyes will be on their final fixtures."
