Canada v Qatar

Canada v Qatar (Kick-off 11.00pm). Laura Woods presents coverage of the Group B match at BC Place Vancouver in Canada. There has only ever been one previous meeting between these nations, a 2022 friendly match in Vienna that saw just 150 people in attendance as Canada claimed a 2-0 victory. There will doubtless be many more to witness tonight's clash in an arena that boasts a capacity in excess of 54,000, with the vast majority of those supporting the co-hosts and aiming to inspire them to victory over a side that, like them, had never won a World Cup finals match prior to the commencement of this tournament. Canada also played a group match here in the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup almost one year ago to the day and, on that occasion, they claimed a comprehensive 6-0 victory over Honduras. With analysis from Emma Hayes, Bradley Wright-Phillips and Ange Postecoglou, and commentary by Seb Hutchinson and Andros Townsend
