Second World Cup appearance ever. With Pjanić (al-Sadd) as the veteran, Krunić and young talent. In Group B with Canada (home crowd) and Switzerland, advancing is difficult. Qatar is winnable; for second place an upset is required.
Second straight World Cup, first as host. Under Jesse Marsch — who as an American understands CONCACAF football far better than his predecessors — Canada have become a completely different team. Copa América 2024 semi-final was a statement. The star: Alphonso Davies, who moved from Bayern to Real Madrid in 2025 — Canada's greatest sporting export ever. Alongside him: Jonathan David (Juventus), Eustáquio (Porto). On home soil, in Group B with Bosnia, Qatar and Switzerland, advancing is even expected. Round of 16 is confirmation, a quarter-final a milestone for Canadian football. In a country where ice hockey is everything, that could be the tipping point where football truly breaks through nationally.
