In the FIFA World Cup 2026 match against Qatar, Canada registered a dominating victory by 6-0 at the BC Place Vancouver in Canada

During the match, Jonathan David scored three stupendous goals to help Canada put on a strong show against Qatar

With this, he became the second player in the history of the World Cup to score a hat-trick for a non-European or non-South American team. Before him, the USA's Bert Patenaude achieved the feat in 1930 against Paraguay

David also joined Argentina's skipper Lionel Messi on the list of players to score a hat-trick in the ongoing edition of the FIFA World Cup

Riding on his three goals, Canada also became the first team from outside Europe and South America to score five or more goals in a FIFA World Cup match. It also marked Canada's maiden victory in the tournament's history

Canada also registered 97 touches inside the opposition's penalty box during the match against Qatar. This is also the highest-ever record in a FIFA World Cup match since the time data tracking began in 1966
